Event Description : "Julio Cortazar and his work" a talk by Lipi Biswas, Sonya Gupta, Minni Sawhney as part of "Homage to Julio Cortazar".

About the author : 
Julio Cortázar is considered one of the most original and innovative writers of his time, 
master of the short story, the poetic prose, and short narration in general, and also creator of great novels, as “Rayuela”, which opened a new way of making literature in the Hispanic world, breaking the classic patterns through narratives that avoid the temporal linearity. The contents of his works move in the border between reality and fantasy – and that is why he is considered as part of the “magic realism”, as well as in the surrealism-. 

On this round table the audience will know more about Cortázar and his works, including his short stories  (by JNU Professor Lipi Biswas), his masterpiece “Rayuela” (by Delhi University Professor Minni Sawhney), and the book he wrote after visiting India, “From the Observatory” (by Jamia Millia Islamia Professor Sonya Gupta).
