Tapa blanda. Zustand: New. Reunidos en un solo volumen todos los cuentos de una de las grandes narradoras norteamericanas del siglo XX.Katherine Anne Porter comparte geografía literaria --el sur de Estados Unidos-- con William Faulkner y Flannery O'Connor, pero su estilo frugal y poético explora territorios distintos. Sus personajes, perseguidos por la violencia y la incertidumbre del mundo mexicano, luchan por la supervivencia, escindidos entre la sensualidad y la locura. De esa tierra árida, abandonada por los dioses, surge un espacio mítico del que Katherine Anne Porter sabe arrancar dolorosos destellos de belleza.Estos Cuentos completos fueron merecedores del National Book Award en 1965 y del Premio Pulitzer en 1969. El presente volumen incluye los relatos reunidos en esa colección (sus tres libros primordiales, Judas en flor, Pálido caballo, pálido jinete y La torre inclinada) y algunos otros que no habían sido recogidos antes.La crítica ha dicho.«Amo a Katherine Anne Porter.»Alice Munro, La Vanguardia«En la literatura norteamericana del siglo hay sólo dos grandes artistas: Flannery O'Connor y Katherine Anne Porter.»Truman Capote«Katherine Anne Porter escribe con una pureza y una precisión casi únicas en la ficción contemporánea.»Edmund Wilson«Estos Cuentos completos [.] convirtieron a Katherine Anne Porter en una referencia obligatoria en la historia del relato.»José Antonio Gurpegui, El Mundo«Una ocasión irrepetible de leer a una escritora excepcional que [.] sólo tiene comparación con sus coetáneas Flannery O'Connor, Carson McCullers o Eudora Welty. [.] Este libro es un estupendo encuentro con la gran Literatura. [Una] mirada aguda, abierta, insobornable.»José María Guelbenzu, Babelia«Muchos de sus relatos no han sido superados en la ficción moderna, y otros son raramente igualados. [Porter] pertenece al grupo relativamente pequeño de escritores [.] que han trabajado de forma seria, consistente, original y crucial en la ficción breve; un grupo que incluye a James Joyce,Katherine Mansfield, Sherwood Anderson, Ernest Hemingway y Kay Boyle, por ejemplo.»Robert Penn Warren, The Kenyon Review«Las grandes historias generan sus propios significados y cobran nueva vida en la mente de cada lector. Aunque los relatos de Porter pertenecen al pasado, siguen activos y vivos.»Chris Power, The Guardian«La obra de Porter ha sido descrita como "femenina y feroz". Su forma de narrar tenía una cualidad translúcida, una objetividad aparente y suavemente pulida que, sin embargo, movía al lector a compartir la agitación subyacente de sus personajes y sus relaciones, a menudo aterradoras.»Laurie Johnston, The New York Times«Porter exhibe en su obra un intelecto crítico bien entrenado que confrecuencia se ocupó, sobre todo al principio de su carrera, de los derechos y las preocupaciones de las mujeres.»Jane Flanders, Frontiers.…
