Oh, I created this thread by mistake. I was going to add a brief observation about the "flavour" shared by some of my favourite works (An evening with Claire, La porte étroite, Adolphe, etc.), but I changed my mind.

I only read Spanish, English, French and (with great difficulty) Italian. I read Handke in translation.

As for the list, I had to make a considerable effort not to add more titles by Papini, or an excessive number of Argentine authors (although Gálvez and Cambaceres are the only ones who do not enjoy significant popularity in the Spanish-speaking world).

Recomendame algunos autores o libros sureños. Solo he leído Onetti, Cortazar, Borges, Sábato y un poquito de Quiroga (solo algunos cuentos). También he oído cosas buenas sobre Pizarnick.

Extracción de la piedra de la locura es lo único que he leído de Pizarnik. Me ha parecido de una gran calidad, aunque, como no suelo leer poesía, mi juicio no posee demasiado valor.

Si manejás bien el español, te recomiendo a Leopoldo Marechal. Adán Buenosayres y El banquete de Severo Arcángelo son obras muy complejas, extremadamente ricas en referencias históricas y culturales. Dicha densidad es aligerada por un humor muy particular.

I wish more people spoke about Handke. I find nearly all his work incredibly interesting (if only intermittently successful), and the Slow Homecoming series has probably the most immersive prose stylistics I have ever seen.

Añado a esta recomendación (>>13198) a Eduardo Mallea. La capacidad que demuestra de entrelazar el paisaje con la psicología de los personajes en "Todo verdor perecerá" es magnífica.

Un autor más próximo a nuestro tiempo: Piglia. Especialmente "Respiración artificial".
