Synopsis "Cuentos (in Spanish)"

Los cuentos reunidos en este volumen -provenientes de "Obras completas (y otros cuentos)", "Movimiento perpetuo" y "La palabra mágica"- son muestra significativa de la maestría de Monterroso en el relato breve, dominio en el que revela, bajo una engañosa simplicidad, una inagotable capacidad de fabulación unida a un consumado oficio de escritor.
