Dressing up Cortazar




Julio Cortazar, an Argentinian writer, was born on August 26, 1914, right at the beginning of Word War I in this house on Avenue Lepoutre in Ixelles. His  dad was an Argentinian diplomat. I am wondering whether he would be shocked if he knew how his statue was decorated earlier this evening.

  This man is not only a brilliant writer but also a fantastic entertainer. Thoroughly enjoyed the evening at Flagey in Brussels.
