Amazon.com description: Product Description: An anthology of the eternal sadness that we experience in love and life. Starting from the idea that a good story should always be a sad story because life itself is sad, and a good story should resemble life, Barbara Jacobs and Augusto Monterroso took the challenge of selecting and compiling the best examples of this sort of narrative, guided by the requirement of sadness and unquestionable literary quality. In this anthology you will find works by: Gustave Flaubert; James Joyce; Juan Rulfo; William Faulkner; Augusto Monterroso; Juan Carlos Onetti; Saul Bellow; Thomas Mann and Anton Chejov, among many others. Description in Spanish: A partir de la idea de que un buen cuento siempre será un cuento triste porque la vida misma es triste y un buen cuento concentra toda la vida, Bárbara Jacobs y Augusto Monterroso se dieron a la tarea de recopilar, seleccionar y antologar los mejores ejemplos de este género narrativo, guiados por el criterio de la tristeza y por su indiscutible calidad literaria. El volumen incluye una amplia panorámica de la literatura universal con cuentos como , de Herman Melville; Yzur, de Leopoldo Lugones; Una nubecilla, de James Joyce; Luvina, de Juan Rulfo; o Una rosa para Emily, de William Faulkner.
