Cortázar's Metamorphosis

62 Words1 Pages
Cortázar 's short story, Axolotl, is about a man, that after frequent visits to the zoo, he becomes obsessed with Axolotls, observes them, and becomes one of them. This story explores the idea of mental metamorphosis, as the character does not literally transform into an Axolotl. The protagonist makes observations that reflect the way he feels in his life, outside of the zoo.
