A review by flatmtns
Under the Jaguar Sun by Italo Calvino
4.0
"You are wise to listen, not to let your attention lapse even for an instant; but you must be convinced of this: it is yourself you hear, it is within you that the ghosts acquire voices. Something you are incapable of saying even to yourself is trying painfully to make itself heard."
-from "A King Listens".
The stories in this book, like most of Calvino's work, moved me at surprising times, came at me from unusual angles, and reminded me to never assume I have figured anything out.
