1. Tango CD: Astor Piazzola’s Tango: Zero Hour. If you are looking to download a single song, try Carlos Gardel’s El Dia Que Me Quieras.
2. Novel: Cortazar’s Hopscotch [Rayuela]. I read one chapter (almost) every day, which amounts to about three pages. I expect to finish in July, and no I don’t understand it in English either. It does hold my attention, and is rapidly becoming one of my favorite novels. Looking elsewhere, Eduardo Berti is a much underrated author.
3. Short story: Tlon, Uqbar, Orbus Tertius, by Borges. Could this be the best short story period? Here is an excerpt.
4. Film: Nine Queens is the obvious choice, and yes it is implicit commentary on their economic crises. Here is a longer list. For "Film, Set In," you might try Kiss of the Spider Woman.
5. Pianist: Martha Argerich. Try her Chopin, or perhaps her Prokofiev. She is one of the sexiest women:
6. TV show: I only know one Argentinian TV show — Epitafios — but it is a blockbuster. Noir about a serial killer in Buenos Aires; sometimes they show it on HBO.
7. Social science: Domingo Sarmiento, Facundo: Civilization and Barbarism. The Argentinian Tocqueville, you might say, and just translated into English last year. If you relish the idea that rural areas are barbaric, you will find intellectual company in this book.
8. Painter: Guillermo Kuitca. Try this one, or here is a classic Kuitca image.
The bottom line: This is one of the best places on earth, and yes I am here now. Comments are open, if you would care to add to this.
Judging just by the name, G. Kuitca should be of Ukrainian descent: kvitka (ukr) = flower, formerly a popular surname. A lot of Ukrainians emigrated to Argentine around the turn of XX c.
I agree with you that “Tlön, Uqbar, Orbis Tertius”
is one of the best short stories ever written. I
so much agree that my website is named “Orbis
Tertius Village”.
My very favourite classical guitarist is Victor Villadangos (see: http://www.eclectecon.com/posts/1100120640.shtml).
I don’t normally respond here. But, I’d like to add that Argentina (or any new place) may appear to be “the best,” but it’s not. A bit harsh? Maybe and I’m sorry to offend any passionate Argentine readers here. Argentina is certainly a very interesting (add-other-adjectives-here) country, but so is every other country in South America.
I don’t know how long you’ll be there, but I’d encourage you to investigate certain dichotomies (time permitting), dichotomies about which your hosts will likely have strong opinions (which will be telling): Buenos Aires vs. the Interior; Boca vs. River; La Nacion vs. Pagina 12; Sarmiento vs. Rosas; Reds vs. Blues; ISI vs. agriculture; Independiente vs. Racing; Menem vs. nobody when the economy was artifically good and vs. just about everyone when it all went bad. That’s just off the top of my head.
As someone mentioned, (my view) hit the streets of Buenos Aires and avoid the tourist areas. Stop at a cafe or a bar, engage your likely well-educated taxi driver, take the bus–for God’s sake, TAKE THE BUS!!!!–and enjoy. I’ve always found that initiating a conversation about soccer will open up a host of new topics. Pick a team and make it a team other than Boca or River, be original…take Racing Club (okay, I’m coaxing you).
Kent
I have two lasting impressions:
1. From Buenos Aires: sexy women. Everywhere. Hugely distracting place to do business
2. From the countryside: Beautiful small towns layed out around the central square that seemed more European than Europe.
Another Argentinian of Ukrainian origins is the chamame accordionist Chango Spasiuk. Well worth investigating if you like your music a little rougher round the edges than tango.
No wine? Paul Hobbs imports some tasty wines — cabs and malbecs — from Argentina.
http://www.paulhobbs.com/ has info about some of his high-end stuff, but I also like a cab called El Crocodrilo, in the store for about $12.
Hello, I’m not sure I understand this page. I’m rather low-tech and don’t visit these kind of sites much. It seems like random thoughts all splattered about. Maybe that’s normal. I wouldn’t know. I will be in Argentina in 4 days from San Francisco. I liked what you said about staying away from tourist locations. Exploring. I will be heading west, south…north? Patagonia, Cuzco…I hope. I hope to stop by Cordoba and Alta Gracia to pay respects to Che. I don’t know. I want to get lost. I heard Buenos Aires is very expensive. Someone told me expect to pay $300 a day there. I think they must be crazy. Anyway…can you recommend a place that’s safe and quiet and not too expensive? I would love to set up something before I leave. Any ideas? P.S. I just watched “Nueve Reinas”! That was one funny, very clever film!
