El perseguidor

"The Pursuer" is one of Julio Cortázar’s greatest literary achievements and a classic of 20th-century literature. Set against a masterfully rendered existential backdrop, the story chronicles the final days of Johnny Carter, a virtuoso saxophonist whose life teeters on the edge of lucidity and self-destruction. Since its publication in 1959, this tribute by Cortázar to the brilliant Charlie Parker has inspired fervor among countless readers, who—much like with "Hopscotch"—have regarded it as a transformative, seminal experience. The renowned illustrator José Muñoz has captured the depth of this fiction with extraordinary talent, portraying a unique story framed by jazz, sleepless nights, and 1950s Paris.
