Spanish-American Short Stories / Cuentos hispanoamericanos; A Dual-Language Book

Seventeen stories from the Caribbean and Central and South America encompass a tremendous variety of subjects, settings, moods, and styles--from worldly sophistication to outright savagery. Ranging in publication dates from 1867 to 1922, each story is by a different writer, with a different national origin from the others in this collection. All authors are well-known names in Spanish literature (e.g. Ruben Dario, Jose Marti, Amado Nervo, Romulo Gallegos, and Ricardo Palma), making this compilation equally appealing to readers in and out of the classroom.
