Summary:
La historia de la producción literaria de Luis Buñuel se debate entre datos contradictorios y documentos extraviados, así como vaguedades y silencios de su autor. Cuando hablamos de él, lo que solemos decir es que es el más universal de los cineastas españoles. El marbete no yerra, pero elude que, una vez hubo transitado por el ultraísmo, contribuyó sobremanera a urbanizar la parcela no solo del surrealismo literario en España, sino del ensayismo cinematográfico, del que fue pionero. Esta edición, a partir de la reunión y el análisis crítico de toda su obra literaria, se compone de poemas, narraciones breves e hiperbreves, una insólita incursión en la dramaturgia y ensayos sobre el cine. (publisher description) The history of the literary production of Luis Buñuel is torn between contradictory data and lost documents, as well as vagueness and silences of its author. When we talk about him, what we usually say is that he is the most universal of Spanish filmmakers. The tag is not wrong, but it eludes that, once he had gone through ultraism, he greatly contributed to urbanizing the plot not only of literary surrealism in Spain, but also of cinematographic essayism, of which he was a pioneer. This edition, based on the meeting and critical analysis of all his literary work, is made up of poems, short and hyper-short stories, an unusual foray into dramaturgy and essays on cinema.
