Blow-Up and Other Stories is a collection of short stories by Argentine author Julio Cortázar, selected from three of his earlier Spanish-language collections: Bestiario (1951), Final del juego (1956), and Las armas secretas (1959). The work was originally published in English translation by Paul Blackburn as End of the Game and Other Stories (1967), before being changed in a subsequent edition to its present title.[1] The story "Blow-Up" served as the inspiration for the film of the same name by Michelangelo Antonioni.[2]
