A tragic destiny pursued the life of the Uruguayan author Horacio Quiroga (1878-1937), which he reflected in two of his most significant works: "Cuentos de la Selva" (dedicated to children) and "Cuentos de amor, de locura y de muerte" (1917-18). Through short stories, he lucidly exposes, with a clear prose, extreme human experiences, of their consciousness and of those around them, always with death in the background, in an exuberant and hostile environment, as no one had done before him in Latin America. His models were Maupassant, Kipling, Chekhov, and above all, the ill-fated American Edgar Allan Poe, with whom he is compared. Romantic in his sentiments, his realistic art applies to the study of human and zoological behavior with objective accuracy in his descriptions. It has been said that he is a precursor to "Chronicle of a Death Foretold" by the Colombian Gabriel García Márquez. Technical detailsPages 192 Year 2010 Format 12 x 18 cms.
