Very early one morning at the beginning of spring I was studying in my room in our fifth­floor flat in the only apartment building on the block. Feeling just a bit lazy, every now and again I let my eyes stray beyond the window. I could see the street and, on the opposite side, old don Cesáreo's well­kept garden. His house stood on the corner of a site that formed an Irregular pentagon. Next to don Cesáreo’s was a beautiful house belonging to the Bernasconis, a wonderful family who were always doing good and kindly things. They had three daughters, and I was in love with Adriana, the eldest. That was why from time to time I glanced at the opposite side of the street - more out of a sentimental habit than because I expected to see her at such an early hour. As usual, don Cesáreo was tending and watering his beloved garden, which was divided from the street by a low iron fence and three stone steps.

Were he so inclined, he would probably kill me. Luckily, until now, he has not abused his power. In the exercise of his sway over me he is moderate, not the least bit capricious, and, one might even say, constitutional. It must, however, be understood that my obedience derives not from a recognition of his qualities or virtues but from the fear he instills in me. Were he to consider it expedient, he would kill me, and his crime - or execution - would go unpunished. In the event that the legal institutions could prove incontrovertibly that he was the murderer, they would not be able to punish him, not only because of the subsidiary fact that there is no provision in law for this type of offense but also because he would not allow it. To my great good fortune, I have common sense enough to see that he has once and for all dismissed the idea of doing away with me - so long as I give him no cause. He has taken up residence on the wall, near the top of an oil painting that depicts an improbable landscape in which two seemingly Spanish shepherdesses with great big crooks are deep in conversation about some topic or other, surrounded by a flock of mildlooking sheep, one of whose straight back falls in with the line of the horizon in an unpleasing way. There is an abundance of topographical detail: a green plain, two purple mountains crowned with white, and a blue river that empties into a grayish lake. I know next to nothing about fine art, but this picture has always seemed to me to lack all aesthetic value. The mosquito, however, appears to have no interest in aesthetic values ­or, for that matter, in any other sort of value. At least he has never shown either approval or disapproval.

Z Existe Un Hombre Que Tiene La Costumbre De Pegarme Con Un Paraguas En La Cabeza (SORRENTINO;FERNANDO) Existe Un Hombre Que Tiene La Costumbre De Pegarme Con Un Paraguas En La Cabeza es una antología de relatos del escritor argentino Fernando Sorrentino. Con esta publicación Ediciones Carena pone al alcance del lector español la obra esencial de uno de los maestros en el arte narrativo en nuestra lengua, traducido a los idiomas más importantes y variados (inglés, alemán, chino, japonés, francés, húngaro, danés, tamil etc.) y paradójicamente ausente en las librerías españolas. Fernando Sorrentino nos deleita con una base narrativa condimentada en la tradición de Quevedo, guarnecida con ambiente kafkiano y salpimentada por el esperpento valleinclanesco. Pero, a diferencia de los maestros del humor negro, que encierran a sus personajes en laberintos irrespirables, los personajes recreados por Sorrentino no sucumben ante las adversidades sino que sobreviven a ellas, siempre en el filo de la navaja. Fernando Sorrentino pone patas arriba nuestras convicciones al señalar cómo los corderos pueden ser más terribles que los propios lobos o cómo la exquisita amabilidad puede estar en el origen de una guerra nefasta o cómo la elaboración de un método de control perfecto para los ciudadanos puede devenir en un gran caos.

13. Fernando Sorrentino, Argentinian Writer, Born 1942 Autobiography and publications. http://www.alb-neckar-schwarzwald.de/autores/sorrentino/bio-e.html

Fernando Sorrentino My name is Fernando Sorrentino. I'm writing this in the first person to emphasize the truth of these statements. I was born in Buenos Aires on November 8, 1942. According to some thoroughly credible testimonials, my stories are distinguished by a curious mixture of imagination and humor that sometimes takes a grotesque turn but always stays plausible. I prefer reading to writing and actually do not write all that much. Considering that I have been writing for thirty-two years, my bibliography is fairly short. The fiction I have written comprises six short story collections (La regresión zoológica, 1969; Imperios y servidumbres, 1972; El mejor de los mundos posibles, 1976; En defensa propia, 1982; El remedio para el rey ciego, 1984; El rigor de las desdichas, 1994), a long narrative (Costumbres de los muertos, 1996) and a short novel (Sanitarios centenarios, 1979). My books for children and young adults more or less have the same characteristics at a different level: Cuentos del Mentiroso, 1978; El Mentiroso entre guapos y compadritos, 1994; La recompensa del príncipe, 1995; Historias de María Sapa y Fortunato, 1995; El Mentiroso contra las Avispas Imperiales, 1994; La venganza del muerto, 1997; El que se enoja, pierde, 1999; Aventuras del capitán Bancalari, 1999; Cuentos de don Jorge Sahlame, 2001; El Viejo que Todo lo Sabe, 2001.

There's a Man in the Habit of Hitting Me on the Head with an Umbrella A short story by Fernando Sorrentino There's a man in the habit of hitting me on the head with an umbrella. It makes exactly five years today that he's been hitting me on the head with his umbrella. At first I couldn't stand it; now I'm used to it. I don't know his name. I know he's average in appearance, wears a gray suit, is graying at the temples, and has a common face. I met him five years ago one oppressively hot morning. I was sitting on a tree-shaded bench in Palermo Park, reading the paper. Suddenly I felt something touch my head. It was the very same man who now, as I'm writing, keeps whacking me, mechanically and impassively, with an umbrella. Convinced that I was dealing with a madman, I tried to escape. But the man followed me, wordlessly continuing to hit me. So I began to run (at this juncture I should point out that not many people run as fast as I do). He took off after me, vainly trying to land a blow. The man was huffing and puffing and gasping so, that I thought if I continued to force him to run at that speed, my tormenter would drop dead right then and there. That's why I slowed down to a walk. I looked at him. There was no trace of either gratitude or reproach on his face. He merely kept hitting me on the head with the umbrella. I thought of showing up at the police station and saying, "Officer, this man is hitting me on the head with an umbrella." It would have been an unprecedented case. The officer would have looked at me suspiciously, would have asked for my papers, and begun asking embarrassing questions. And he might even have ended up placing me under arrest.

Fernando Sorrentino Ich heiße Fernando Sorrentino. Ich schreibe in der ersten Person und übernehme damit die volle Verantwortung für die Wahrheit des Geschriebenen. Ich wurde am 8. November 1942 in Buenos Aires geboren. Wie durchaus ernstzunehmende Zeugen versichern, zeichnen sich meine Geschichten durch eine seltsame Mischung von Fantasie und Humor aus, die manchmal ins Groteske geht, dabei aber immer glaubhaft bleibt. Ich lese lieber, als dass ich schreibe, und eigentlich schreibe ich ziemlich wenig. Für insgesamt zweiunddreißig Jahre literarischer Arbeit habe ich keine sehr lange Bibliografie vorzuweisen. Mein erzählerisches Werk setzt sich aus sechs Sammlungen von Kurzgeschichten zusammen (La regresión zoológica, 1969; Imperios y servidumbres, 1972; El mejor de los mundos posibles, 1976; En defensa propia, 1982; El remedio para el rey ciego, 1984; El rigor de las desdichas, 1994), einer langen Erzählung (Costumbres de los muertos, 1996) und einem nicht sehr langen Roman (Sanitarios centenarios, 1979). Meine Kinder- und Jugendbücher haben mutatis mutandis dieselben Eigenschaften: Cuentos del Mentiroso, 1978; El Mentiroso entre guapos y compadritos, 1994; La recompensa del príncipe, 1995; Historias de María Sapa y Fortunato, 1995; El Mentiroso contra las Avispas Imperiales, 1994; La venganza del muerto, 1997; El que se enoja, pierde, 1999; Aventuras del capitán Bancalari, 1999; Cuentos de don Jorge Sahlame, 2001; El Viejo que Todo lo Sabe, 2001.
