About this listen
Un gran clásico de la narrativa breve latinoamericana, en la antología esencial compaginada por el propio autor.
Julio Ramón Ribeyro tituló La palabra del mudo al conjunto de sus cuentos, y más tarde destiló su esencia en la presente antología.
Clásico incuestionable de la literatura latinoamericana, el volumen hace gala de una gran riqueza literaria y diversidad temática, que el lector encontrará reflejada en textos de corte social («Al pie del acantilado»), fantástico («La insignia») o poético («Los eucaliptos»). Situado al margen del boom de la literatura latinoamericana, Ribeyro fue fiel a sus principios artísticos y eludió siempre la exuberancia en favor de lo marginal y lo cotidiano. Hoy está considerado un maestro de la concisión.
Please note: This audiobook is in Spanish.

Con estas palabras iniciaba Edmundo Valdés la primera reseña de Pedro Páramo, aparecida el 30 de marzo de 1955 y conservada por Juan Rulfo entre sus papeles.

En Rayuela (1963), Julio Cortázar supo condensar sus obsesiones estéticas, literarias y vitales a partir de un mosaico diverso, profundo, inagotable que, a su vez, refleja de forma maravillosa lo más esencial de su época. El amor turbulento de Oliveira y La Maga, los amigos del Club de la Serpiente, las impredecibles caminatas por París -la ciudad que promete el cielo pero puede conducir al infierno-, encuentran su contracara en la aventura protagonizada por Oliveira, Talita y Traveler en Buenos Aires.

La región más transparente fue la primera novela de Fuentes, la que le abrió todas las puertas posibles. Inventario de la sociedad mexicana, es también una suerte de versión vanguardista de la comedia humana, en la que, a través de un curioso mapa de linajes, se representan mundos y submundos entrelazados. La ciudad de México emerge en su moderna complejidad, y la escritura nos proporciona una cartografía de la red social que este mundo teje.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 760
When Heather McKinley dreamed of becoming a doctor, she imagined curing sick kids and sporting pink stethoscopes. She never anticipated the sleepless nights, grueling exams, and endless labs. And she certainly never knew that her medical school earned the nickname Dead Med thanks to the tragic history of students overdosing on illegal drugs. But Heather would never consider doing anything like that. That is, until her longtime boyfriend dumps her, she finds herself failing anatomy, and her world starts to crumble.
