Mexican Short Stories / Cuentos mexicanos: A Dual-Language Book (Dover Dual Language Spanish)

Greatly influenced by Europe's nineteenth-century literary trends, Mexico's writers crafted some of the most phenomenal prose fiction in Spanish America. This collection offers a rich sampling of significant Mexican short stories publishedÂ from 1843Â to 1918. Nine different tales range from the realism of LÃ³pez Portillo's Â“Reloj sin dueÃ±oâ€ and the modernismo saturating GutiÃ©rrez NÃ¡jera's "La maÃ±ana de San Juan" to the historical accuracy of Riva Palacio's "Las mulas de Su Excelencia" and the vivid romanticism of "Amor secreto" by Manuel Payno, named the "father of Mexican short stories."Â
Each story appears in its original Spanish text with expert English translations on each facing page. This dual-language edition features a fascinating new introduction and ample footnotes. An easy-reading pleasure for lovers of fine Spanish-language literature, it is also a valuable educational aid for students and teachers.
