Eternal Curse on the Reader of These Pages (Spanish: Maldición eterna a quien lea estas páginas) is a 1980 novel by Argentine novelist Manuel Puig. Originally written in English, it was first published in Spanish in the author's own translation.[1] As in other works by Puig, the story is formally experimental, consisting of mostly unattributed dialogue, digressing into stories within stories. It also bears many of Puig's favorite motifs, including sexuality and leftist revolutionary politics.
