Los mejores relatos del gran maestro del cuento latinoamericano. Este volumen recoge los mejores cuentos de Quiroga, como el estremecedor «La gallina degollada y el perturbador «El almohadón de plumas , obras maestras de un autor considerado uno de los mejores exponentes del género en lengua española. Amor, locura y muerte son tres constantes en su narrativa, que transita desde el género del terror en Cuentos de amor de locura y de muerte, al realismo comprometido en Los desterrados. Reconocidos tanto por su originalidad estilÃstica como por la novedad de los temas tratados, los relatos del uruguayo Horacio Quiroga se sitúan, siempre, en la fina lÃnea que separa lo racional de lo irracional. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION The best stories from the great master of Latin American story-telling. This volume gathers Quiroga's best stories, such as the shivery La gallina degollada / The Beheaded Hen and the disturbing El almohadón de plumas / The Feather Pillow, masterpieces by an author considered one of the best exponents of the genre in Spanish language. Love, madness, and death are three constants in his narrative, which he navigates within the horror genre in Cuentos de amor de locura y de muerte / Stories of Love, Madness, and Death, to the unswerving realism in Los desterrados / Exiles. Recognized both for their stylistic originality and for the uniqueness of their themes, Uruguayan Horacio Quiroga's stories are always balancing on the fine line that separates the rational from the irrational.
