Synopsis "Shakespeare & Cervantes (in Spanish)"

Shakespeare & Cervantes reconstruye un cuento perdido de Jorge Luis Borges, «Los otros dos». El escritor argentino hace dialogar en él a los dos genios de la literatura, con quienes se encuentra poco antes de morir, en Ginebra. Fiel a su poética híbrida, Jorge Carrión difumina en este texto los límites entre el ensayo, el relato y la autobiografía. Las ilustraciones de Javier Olivares, también fieles a un estilo único, interpretan la partida de ajedrez que juegan Shakespeare, Cervantes y Borges, moviendo las piezas de la literatura y del destino. El resultado es un pequeño libro lleno de estratos, que invita a ser releído línea por línea, imagen por imagen. La primera colaboración de dos de los autores más inquietos y originales de la cultura española de hoy.
