Product Details
Overview
Uno de los más importantes exponentes, junto con William Faulkner, de la narrativa del sur de Estados Unidos.
Además de ser autora de varias novelas, obras de teatro, ensayos, poemas y una autobiografía, Carson McCullers (Columbus, Georgia, 1917 – Nueva York, 1967) publicó veinte relatos breves, nueve de los cuales, valorados entre sus más logradas creaciones, conforman esta selección, que incorpora algunas de sus primeras piezas, como «Sucker», «El aliento del cielo» o «Wunderkind», y otras de más tardía escritura, como «Un árbol. Una roca. Una nube», «El transeúnte» o «¿Quién ha visto el viento?».
Encumbrada al panteón de escritores sureños norteamericanos junto a autores como William Faulkner, Flannery O’Connor o Truman Capote, McCullers sobresalió en su iluminadora capacidad de retratar personajes solitarios en busca de un lugar en el mundo y de capturar con toda la intensidad emocional el universo íntimo de sus turbulencias a través de una prosa tan sencilla como poderosa.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
One of the most important voices—alongside William Faulkner—in Southern U.S. literature.
In addition to writing several novels, plays, essays, poems, and an autobiography, Carson McCullers (Columbus, Georgia, 1917 – New York, 1967) published twenty short stories, nine of which—considered among her finest—are featured in this selection. It includes early works such as “Sucker,” “Breath from the Sky,” and “Wunderkind,” as well as later pieces like “A Tree. A Rock. A Cloud,” “The Wanderer,” and “Who Has Seen the Wind?”
Celebrated among the great Southern American writers alongside William Faulkner, Flannery O’Connor, and Truman Capote, McCullers stood out for her luminous ability to portray lonely characters searching for their place in the world, capturing the emotional intensity of their inner lives through prose that is both simple and powerful.
