Reviewed in the United States on August 23, 1999
Inodoro Pereyra is a very funny and innocent character living in the Argentine Pampas with his dog "Mendieta" and his wife "Eulogia". In this book, you can read all the comic strips that were published for 20 years in Argentina, as well as other foreign countries. The author, Roberto Fontanarrosa also known as "el negro" was born in Rosario, Argentina, and has delighted his public for a quarter of a century with his play on words and the innocent character of Inodoro Pereyra.

Roberto Fontanarrosa, más conocido como “El Negro”, nació en Rosario en 1944. Ha publicado en Ediciones de la Flor 23 libros de su personaje de tiras cómicas “Inodoro Pereyra” y 12 de su otro personaje “Boggie, el Aceitoso”, que ya no dibuja. Como escritor, ha publicado tres novelas –Best Seller, El área 18, y La gansada– y ocho libros de cuentos cortos. Ha reunido sus chistes sobre fútbol en los libros Fontanarrosa, de penal, El fútbol es sagrado y Fontanarrosa y el fútbol. A partir del Mundial de Fútbol de los Estados Unidos (1994), pasando por las eliminatorias y el Mundial de Francia (1998), cubre para el diario Clarín las actuaciones del seleccionado argentino, desde un enfoque humorístico en “Las columnas de la Hermana Rosa”.
Reviewed in the United States on January 2, 2005
Fontanarrosa es una maestro absoluto en el arte de concatenar ideas, muchas veces disímiles o incluso absurdas a través de las palabras y juegos de palabras, de tal manera que finalmente se transforma en una lógica propia de Inodoro, El Renegau, y su perro Mendieta.

En las primeras tiras, las historias contadas son más largas, y de entidad propia; en la tiras más recientes, de una página, cada cuadro típicamente contiene un juego de palabras, y la concatenación de los mismos casi va guiando el desarrollo de la historia. De esta manera pareciera que cada episodio se va moldeando a partir de la conexión de los cuadros.

Inodoro es domador de caballos, holgazán, y un agudo observador de su entorno. Gusta del diálogo, la siesta, y de las mujeres, aunque su concubina, Eulogia, no le permite desarrollar esta afición; por ello también es un machista frustrado...

Acá van dos "perlas" del Inodoro Machista que lo ilustran en alguna medida:

"Después de tantos años, si tengo que elegir otra vez, la elijo a la Eulogia con ojos cerrados. Porque si los abro, elijo a otra"

"¡Malaya (maldición) con las mujeres! Andaríamos todos más tranquilos si Tata Dios con esa costilla que le sacó al Adán se hubiera hecho un buen asado de tira"

Reviewed in the United States on February 12, 2001
It is hard to recommend this impressive volume to non-Argentinians (perhaps Uruguayans could be an exception). In my honest opinion, this comic strip is the best Argentinian one after immortal Mafalda. Every single aspect of Argentine society is reflected with sarcasm, tenderness, wisdom by this absurd gaucho character. If he wasn't funny enough there is his loyal squire Mendieta, or his "Dulcinea" Eulogia, or the irreverent parrot flocks, or Nabucodonosor, the arrogant champion pig. Since a heavy component of the comic strip is the language used (or abused by Don Inodoro) I feel that many non-native Spanish speakers may get lost. In a personal note, to give this book only five stars is being unreasonably selfish. It deserves 10.
