This is a companion volume to the collections of Soviet, German, Italian, and French short stories which have already appeared in Penguin Parallel Texts.
The stories selected are representative, of contemporary writing in Spanish from all parts, and seven of the eight included are the work of Spanish-American authors. The literal English translations, together with the notes and biographies of the writers, are intended to help English-speaking students of Spanish; but the book can also be enjoyed by readers with a knowledge of either language and an interest in modern literature.
