Cada tema con su loco. Encuentro a una profesora de Indiana University of Pennsylvania que también habla de la “imaginería” y la “experimentación de técnicas surrealistas” en El Hotel del Cisne barojiano… Baroja, surrealismo terror y transgresión.

Pío Baroja y Procopio Pagani in Paris: Surrealist Images of a World Gone Mad
While in voluntary exile in Paris during the Spanish Civil War, Pío Baroja wrote El Hotel del Cisne, a strange novel replete with surrealist imagery. In this work he greatly expands on ideas of a world gone mad first explored in novels such as Paradox, Rey and La nave de los locos. Set in Paris between the fall of 1939 and the early summer of 1940, in El Hotel del Cisne irrationality rules in life and in dreams, as Paris is bracing for the German invasion. Viewed in light of recent studies such José Torrecilla’s, which view the Generation of 98 as much more open to European ideas than traditional criticism allows, Baroja’s novel may be a work of experimentation with French surrealist techniques.
