Augusto Monterroso is widely known for short stories characterized by brilliant satire and wit.

Yet behind scathing allusions to the weaknesses and defects of the artistic and intellectual worlds, they show his generous and expansive sense of compassion. This book brings together for the first time in English the volumes Complete Works (and Other Stories) (Obras completas [y otros cuentos] 1959) and Perpetual Motion (Movimiento perpetuo 1972).

Together, they reveal Monterroso as a foundational author of the new Latin American narrative.
