About the Book

HORACIO QUIROGA (1878-1937), nació en la ciudad uruguaya de Salto. Murió su padre en un accidente de caza cuando Horacio sólo contaba un año de edad y éste será el primer eslabón de una cadena de acontecimientos trágicos que jalonarán su vida. Cursó estudios secundarios en Montevideo. Mientras estudiaba, colaboraba en las publicaciones "La Revista" y "La Reforma". En 1896 se suicida su padrastro y en 1902, un disparo accidental de Quiroga, mata a su amigo Federico Ferrando. También su esposa, Ana María Cirés, elegirá el suicidio, como él mismo, en 1937, al enterarse de que sufría un cáncer incurable. Como consecuencia de todo ello, la narrativa de Quiroga enfrenta a menudo una experiencia de la muerte descarnada y absurda. Como poeta, refleja la influencia del modernismo ("Los arrecifes del coral", 1901) y en tanto que narrador resulta palpable el magisterio de Edgar Allan Poe, pues en su obra aparecerá siempre un gusto por lo terrorífico y lo macabro. Con todo lo cual creó un mundo de ficción propio, afianzado con una maestría creciente. "Cuentos de amor, de locura y de muerte" (1917), contiene una colección de historias en las que lo fantástico aflora mezclado con el horror y la ironía. La atmósfera se halla dominada por una naturaleza indómita y colérica, donde la selva se transformará en amenaza mortal para el hombre que osa profanarla.
