About the Book

Una pequeña apertura a la fascinante obra de uno de los autores americanos más importantes del siglo XIX.

Una selección de los mejores relatos del autor de La letra escarlata.

Escasos son los escritores que gozan del reconocimiento en vida y, menos aún, los que, además, consiguen renovar la voz literaria de su país. Este es el caso de Nathaniel Hawthorne (Salem, Massachusetts, 1804 - Plymouth, New Hampshire, 1864) cuya obra se inserta dentro del Renacimiento americano junto a autores como Melville, Thoreau o Poe a los que no solo conoció, sino que, también, inspiró. Célebre como novelista por la extraordinaria La letra escarlata (1850), su importancia en el género más breve del cuento es igual de remarcable. El lector encontrará aquí reunidas piezas extraordinarias como Wakefield, La ambición del forastero o El Gran Rubí.

Construidos bajo la luz de la luna y al calor del fuego del carbón, los cuentos de Hawthorne reflejan el sutil mundo crepuscular de una imaginación fantástica a la vez que, partiendo de la anécdota cotidiana, configuran una atractiva atmosfera de misterio, ironía e inteligencia.

«Diremos enfáticamente de los cuentos de Hawthorne que pertenecen a la más alta esfera del arte.» Edgar Allan Poe

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A small opening to the fascinating work of one of the most important American authors of the nineteenth century.

A selection of the best stories by the author of The Scarlet Letter .

Few are the writers who enjoy recognition during their lifetime, and even fewer who also manage to renew the literary voice of their country. This is the case of Nathaniel Hawthorne (Salem, Massachusetts, 1804 - Plymouth, New Hampshire, 1864) whose work is part of the American Renaissance along with authors such as Melville, Thoreau and Poe whom he not only knew, but also inspired.

Famous as a novelist for the extraordinary The Scarlet Letter (1850), his importance in the shorter genre of the short story is just as remarkable. The reader will find here gathered extraordinary pieces such as Wakefield, The Ambition of the Stranger or The Great Ruby.

Constructed under the moonlight and the warmth of the coal fire, Hawthorne's stories reflect the subtle twilight world of a fantastic imagination while, starting from the everyday anecdote, they configure an attractive atmosphere of mystery, irony and intelligence.

"We will emphatically say of Hawthorne's tales that they belong to the highest sphere of art." Edgar Allan Poe
