Mario Vargas Llosa says that without Onetti's books, his life would've been "infinitely poorer." Today we're releasing A Dream Come True, translated from the Spanish by the incomparable @katalinasilver so you too can avoid an Onetti-less existence. https://t.co/e8Jw7nupH4

"Some people—small-minded people—acquire a stature that masks their true nature, while others—generous and open-hearted—can be trampled and confused by the weight of life." Hebe Uhart in *The Scent of Buenos Aires*

@katalinasilver @TheBrooklynRail @TheBrooklynRail also published "As Sad as She," a little freaky, occasionally sad (as advertised), and definitely worth reading on your misty Tuesday evening. https://t.co/njKYoT1aYE

“We aren’t going to go where everyone else goes. We are going to explore those little streets that wind around in circles. And if we get lost, even better.”

Read, "Tourists and Travelers" from Hebe Uhart's THE SCENT OF BUENOS AIRES in LitHub!
