Synopsis "El Libro de las Quimeras (in Spanish)"

Esta es la segunda obra del gran pensador rumano, escrita cuando tenía sólo veinticuatro años de edad. En ella, Cioran descubre en el aforismo su verdadero estilo, un estilo que le permite no solo discurrir con mayor concisión y precisión, sino denunciar, maldecir y fustigar sin piedad todo lo que le irrita. No obstante, pese a su desgarro y desesperación, el autor encuentra en la vida elementos para reconciliarse con ella: uno de ellos, la música.

Emil Cioran (Rășinari, 1911 - Paris, 1995) was a Romanian-French philosopher and essayist, known for his aphoristic style and deep philosophical pessimism. He studied philosophy in Bucharest, where he befriended Eugène Ionesco and Mircea Eliade. In 1937, he moved to Paris with a scholarship from the French Institute, where he lived until his death.

Among his most notable works are "A Short History of Decay" (1949), "The Trouble With Being Born" (1973), and "The Temptation to Exist" (1956), all in the genre of philosophical essay. His first book, "On the Heights of Despair" (1934), was awarded the Commission Prize and the Young Writers Prize in Romania.
