Cuentos de amor de locura y de muerte Horacio Quiroga Español
Los cuentos de Quiroga son crueles: una joven esposa que se consume sobre un almohadón de plumas, cuatro hermanos desatendidos que ven a una sirvienta matar una gallina. Muchos transcurren en la selva de Misiones, donde el calor y los animales son tan peligrosos como las personas, así que ten cuidado si eres impresionable.
Indian Fairy Tales Joseph Jacobs English
These are trickster tales with teeth, jackals outwitting tigers, a lamb rolling home inside a drum singing to the wolves who want to eat him. Best in small doses before bed, and Jacobs' endnotes tracing where each story wandered from are half the fun if you like that sort of rabbit hole.
The Purple Cloud M. P. Shiel English
You get a bizarre, feverish last-man-on-earth story in Adam Jeffson, whose Arctic expedition leaves him wandering through emptied cities, burning with awe, disgust, and loneliness. Shiel’s ornate prose can feel excessive, but if you enjoy decadent strangeness, the book’s solitude gets under your skin.
