En el blog de @CuentosAlgernon ha dado comienzo un miniespecial del autor estadounidense R. A. Lafferty. Quizás desconocido en nuestros lares, pero muy prolífico, cuenta con la admiración de muchos escritores de género. Podéis saber más sobre él aquí: buff.ly/4fCjo0P

Past Master by R. A. Lafferty should be a strong contender, since Lafferty chose to re-connect dystopias with their roots in Thomas More's Utopia, which is in fact arguably dystopian.

I wonder what R.A Lafferty was like in person, only pictures i've seen of him are as a kooky old man with a wry smile. I imagine Oklahoma produces interesting, and funny people.

Bacaan paling unik tahun ini The Best of R.A. Lafferty. Susah banget dicarinya, akhirnya beli di Kindle Store. Penulis yang jarang didengar tapi penulis favorit banyak penulis 👌🏻

Buku menarik yang baru kamu baca akhir-akhir ini

En general, las historias de viajes en el tiempo son bastantes pedorras y tienen más fisuras argumentales que las justificaciones del crecimiento económico del país pero si querés "el cuento definitivo" sobre este tópico tenés que leer este 👇 de R.A Lafferty.

"Eurema's Dam" by R.A. Lafferty follows a strange-thinking man as he invents his way through life, and the story itself ponders the origins and purpose of invention. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/eve… open.spotify.com/episode/6bLcCO…

ハワード・ウォルドロップ"Mary Margaret Road-Grader"はラファティ研究者のアンドリュー・ファーガスンによれば「もっともラファティっぽい作品」で、ラファティ・ファンジン『Feast of Laughter』4号に再録された。映像化は観てみたいなあ。

もう一本の原作短篇"Mary Margaret Road-Grader"は、らっぱ亭さんがラファティっぽいと紹介していた(ような記憶がある)作品。

Lafferty will never be other than obscure. He picked that niche himself.
