«Pasa algo muy especial con los cuentos de Quiroga y es que nunca se agota el interés que despiertan. A diferencia de otros autores clásicos que se leen en determinado momento de la vida, Horacio Quiroga acompaña al lector en todas sus edades.» --Sergio Olguín

Como una extensión de su propia vida, la obra de Horacio Quiroga es desmesurada, turbulenta, inquietante como pocas. En sus relatos siempre reverbera ese pulso enrarecido que, como el insecto misterioso y letal de "El almohadón de pluma", termina carcomiendo todo.

Cuentos de amor de locura y de muerte (1917) esconde en el título una de las claves para su lectura. Esa coma elidida es la marca con la que Quiroga sentencia su literatura, en la que las pasiones y el horror, los afectos y los tormentos, se entrelazan hasta confundirse en un nudo que amenaza con dejarnos sin aire.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Tales of Love Madness and Death is the most representative work of Horacio Quiroga. In these 15 short stories, Quiroga handles himself with absolute mastery in the field of horror narration (he is often compared to Poe and Maupassant, as can be seen when reading such shocking stories as "The Slaughtered Hen") and offers us one of the greatest examples of Latin American modernism. Quiroga deals with some of the most dangerous aspects of the jungle of South America, such as poisonous snakes, ants that eat living humanbeings, and parasites that kill.

The work deals mainly with death, although it touches upon other themes such as the humanization of animals.

Traditional Grown Man Shirt
Size: Large, Color: Light Grey Vertical Stripe
Great cotton, classically-style button down shirt for guys not wanting anything slim fit, this shirt size is legitimate. It’s a nice heavyweight cotton shirt. I don’t think I’d say it was wrinkle resistant but it doesn’t take much effort to press this garment.

Softer and Larger than Expected
I was a bit wary of this shirt because I had only purchased 100% cotton ones in the past. My first impression out of the package was how soft the material felt. I was very impressed because it usually takes many washings before oxford cloth shirts get that soft. When I put it on, I discovered that there was no noticeable difference made with the small amount of stretch fabric woven into the shirt. I suspect that there would be some give if I wore the shirt as a tight fit, but I prefer my shirts loose, so it wasn't an issue. I found that the shirt was larger than other same sized shirts I've received from Amazon in the past--bigger is better than smaller, but if you are looking for a close fit, you will want to be conservative in the size you order. I didn't realize until I'd been wearing it for a while that it lacks a pocket, I went to put my glasses in my shirt pocket and there wasn't one!
