Autodidacta de poderosa imaginacion, Juan Jose Arreola ejercio los mas disimiles oficios: vendedor ambulante, periodista, maestro y sobre todo charlista de palabra deslumbrante y ademanes categoricos. Inquietador profesional de vidas y sensibilidades buena parte de la joven narrativa mexicana le debe ensenanzas definitivas. Su primer libro, Varia invencion, lo situo como uno de los mejores cuentistas del siglo XX. Confabulario, le da un sitio aparte en nuestras letras. Su evolucion literaria podria resumirse asi: la ingenuidad que deviene sapiencia; la alusion que se convierte en ilusion, el plano vertical que se trueca plano oblicuo. El tema del amor es capital en su obra: va del idealismo adolescente a una vision aterradora y caricaturesca Arreola ha creado las imagenes y las metaforas mas hermosas con que cuenta el poema en prosa, la fabula y el cuento reducido a sus rasgos esenciales. Los lastres que venia padeciendo la literatura mexicana desaparecen en el sin dejar huella.
