Question
In a novella set in this city, a Mesmerist tries to reach a dying poet who cannot stop hiccuping. The narrator of a story set in this city feels a “blind gaze” that seems to say, “Save us, save us.” This city partly titles a story in which a young woman begins vomiting rabbits. The speaker describes dying in this city “in a rainstorm” in the poem “Black Stone on a White Stone.” After stopping a boy from being seduced in this (emphasize) European city, a photographer feels trapped in his own photograph. A man stares into an animal’s golden eyes and seems to switch places with the title axolotl in this city, the setting of “Blow-Up” and the first half of Hopscotch. For 10 points, name this city where expats such as César Vallejo and Julio Cortázar were influenced by local authors such as Simone de Beauvoir. ■END■
