      About This Book

      A collection of the best short stories by the author of the unforgettable novel The Postman.

      Each of the stories in this book is an extraordinary piece of literature. Love, youth, desire, and freedom, coupled with versatile prose, sensitivity, and a subtle irony that sometimes morphs into dark humor, confirm Antonio Skármeta's position as one of the greatest storytellers in contemporary literature.

      Juan Villoro has selected and written a prologue for this collection, originally published in five books that influenced an entire generation of writers and brought about a renewal of Latin American prose.
