Aura

The collection includes the story of Carlos Fuentes "Burnt water" and "Aura" and stories, some of which are published in Russian for the first time.
Fuentes's prose is surprising and does not fit into the narrow confines of genre definitions. All very clear, transparent and at the same time a little weird. There are juicy, passionate national character that accentuates the fanciful imagination of the author, and psychological depth, and hot instincts, hidden behind the impassive expression.
Fantastic and mundane, past and present, tragic and funny are interwoven in his works so naturally and densely, none of the texts Fuentes impossible to break into its component parts, you can only enjoy the beauty of his language and his sharp flight, often paradoxical thoughts.
