The Dinosaur is Still Here, the complete work of Augusto Monterroso, brings together for the first time in a single volume all the stories of the master of the micro-story, each one more brilliant, arranged chronologically: those collected in his first Complete Works (and Other Stories) (1959) ; in The Black Sheep and Other Fables (1962); Perpetual Motion (1972); The rest is silence (1978); Journey to the center of the fable (1981); The Magic Word (1983); The letter E. fragments of a diary (1986); The Gold Diggers (1993); The Cow (1998); Birds of Latin America (2001), and Literature and Life (2003). A key book that recovers and vindicates the value of one of the best Spanish-speaking writers that the 20th century has given us. "His books must be read hands up: his danger is based on underhanded wisdom and the deadly beauty of lack of seriousness." Gabriel Garcia Marquez
