Una joya literaria inédita en España, por una de las escritoras más reconocidas de la literatura en español, ganadora de los premios Cervantes, FIL Guadalajara y Reina Sofía

«Es al mismo tiempo intelectual y popular, universal y personal, transparente y honda. Un referente fundamental para poetas de todas las generaciones y en todos los rincones del español». -Acta del jurado del Premio Cervantes

Publicado originalmente en 1996 e inédito en España hasta el momento, este hermoso libro de Ida Vitale, situado a medio camino entre la prosa y la poesía, reúne cuentos, fábulas y alegorías que conforman una suerte de bestiario humano en el que la premio Cervantes uruguaya revisita algunos mitos clásicos y da cabida a la fantasía de aliento borgiano.

Con perfección formal, un inteligente manejo de la ironía y un magistral empleo de todas las posibilidades expresivas de nuestra lengua, la autora deslumbra una vez más con estas historias inquietantes en torno a la belleza, el dolor, el misterio y la profunda cuestión de la existencia. Donde vuela el camaleón es, en definitiva, una pequeña joya que amalgama no solo una poética, sino una manera de ver la vida.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Never before published in Spain, a literary gem by one of the most renowned writers in Spanish literature, recipient of the Cervantes, FIL Guadalajara, and Reina Sofía prizes.

"It is at the same time intellectual and popular, universal and personal, clear and deep. An essential reference to poets of all generations, in every Spanish-speaking corner of the world." --Statement of the Cervantes Prize jury

First published in 1996 and unpublished in Spain until now, this beautiful book by Ida Vitale, halfway between prose and poetry, has short stories, fables, and allegories composing a sort of human bestiary in which the Uruguayan author, awarded the Cervantes Prize, revisits some of the classic myths and gives room to fantasy with a Borgesian air.

With formal perfection, a smart use of irony, and a masterful use of all expressive possibilities in the Spanish language, the author dazzles once again with these unsettling stories concerning beauty, pain, mystery, and the profound matter of existence. Where the Chameleon Flies definitely is a small gem that not only welds together a poetic work, but a way to look at life.

the gasp I guspped 😱
Format: Kindle
This book was so good. I love the world that has been created so far in this story. Addi is a boss and the fact that she is having to hide who she really is from everyone at the academy yet also being able to stand her ground and not be bullied into anything just shows how strong she really is. She doesn’t take anything lying down and even if it makes the target bigger on her she sticks to what she believes is right. Raiden, Brody, Cassian and Kryll all seem to have a pull towards Addi but with them all competing against each other in the hopes to become the next heir they try every way they can think to get her out of their heads and out of their way. I love the push and pull between Addi and the guys. They have this electric chemistry that makes them want to hate each other but fine that they don’t want to pull away from each other. I really can’t stand the girls who are always trying to start stuff with Addi just because the guys show interest and they feel like they have a right to.That also goes for Cassians dad and the dean and her elitist self 🙄 But that ending had me GASPING 😱 like I knew he was a crap person but I didn’t expect that at all. I need the next book ASAP 5/5⭐️’s 2.5/5🌶️’s

It's okay... Needs something
Format: Kindle
This author has potential but her books tend to follow the same formula on plot that I usually DNF. Plot - Girl has goal, boys determined to chase her off (usually for dumb reason), mean girls, and before book 1 is done, guys enamoured with FMC cuz she shiny and pretty. It gets boring fast. This one is an improvement, I completed it and for the most part, I liked it. However, I hate when the FMC tells herself to stay focused, thinks logical, looks like she will be a strong FMC, and in the next chapter succumbing to the MMCs due to lust. Why? Especially, when there hasn't been much conversation between them to justify that level of attraction or connection. Don't get me wrong, I love spice, just make it make sense, its giving fast burn and if that's the case, write 1 book. Second issue, I love bully romances, I want to hate the MMCs, than I want the author to some how make me love them. Chefs kiss 😘 So, I was draw to this book bc of that theme...Not getting it here. Technically, they are sort of mean but this ain't it. One is mean but for a stupid reason... he doesn't need to be distracted by his attraction 🙄, he just looks weak to not be able to control that, just saying. The other two are just followers and don't really care enough about her to bully her. Last one, doesn't bully her, he's just trying to get in her pants. Lastly, we are to believe MMcs are baddies... cruel, ruthless, ambitious, and dangerous... please show me that in the next book cuz saw none of that in this one. That goes for the FMC, the men shouldn't be able to get over her all the dang time, definitely not for someone who has been training their whole life to take back their crown! Third issue, the academy concept is falling flat for me. That needs some world building, development... Something! Its just reading filler space to me. The book description reads like this school is designed to weed out the weak by difficult competitive challenges so your left with one strong leader who will take the throne. Nah... more like charm school. All in all, it follows the same formula as her other "academy" books but slightly better... Not sure if that's true, or maybe I was just determined to finish one of her books for once.

A good start to the story
Format: Kindle
This was definitely entertaining, and the cliffhanger left me curious to see what happens next. Addi is definitely a bad ass and she has to prove herself Day in and Day out because of what she is. I love that. She never cowards and always rises to a challenge. She doesn’t let anyone push her and she always has a comeback for any prejudice thing said to her. I’m looking for more from the guys cause so far I’m honestly unimpressed. They definitely have some growth and helping within these next few books I’ll see that growth and like them a little more.

OUTSTANDING
Format: Kindle
This was very, very good. The world is vast and characters are complex. There is a good plot with a whole lot going on. This is well written. Good twists and turns and some heart breaking moments. You will love these characters, they have heart and loyalty. I am hoping that there will be several more books. We've yet to see anything from the Sea Court but only a mention of them here and there. The Wood Court was given a quick couple of scenes, and only as far as some warriors, we've yet to enter their court and the Shadow Court, I'm not sure if they will be a force for good or bad, but they definitely will play a much bigger role moving forward. This is primarily the Ice and Air Courts. Told in multiple views, which I loved, it gives you a chance to see things from different eyes. There's alot of political maneuvering and deception. I loved it and will pick up the next book as it becomes available. If you like The Fae and the courts, you should love this. I think the author has mucn in store for us.
