Autonauts of the Cosmoroute by Julio Cortazar

"Autonauts of the Cosmoroute" is a love story, an irreverent travelogue of elaborate tales and snapshots detailing Julio Cortazar and Carol Dunlop's thirty-three-day voyage on the Paris-Marseilles freeway in 1982. Satirizing modern travel and the great explorers, this sparkling work pushes life and literature to surreal extremes.
'Anyone who doesn't read Cortazar is doomed' Pablo Neruda'Cortazar is a unique storyteller.' Time'A stunning writer.' The Christian Science Monitor'Julio Cortazar is a dazzler.' The San Francisco Chronicle'A first-class literary imagination.' New York Times Book Review
Julio Cortazar was born in Belgium in 1914 to Argentine parents. They returned to Buenos Aries when he was four. One of the true giants of twentieth-century literature, Cortazar was a tireless defender of Latin American self-determination and many of his books were banned in Argentina. He died in Paris in 1984.
