| Publisher Description: Published for the first time in Spanish, this three-volume set contains all of Nobel Prize-winning author Luigi Pirandello's short stories. Originally meant to consist of 24 volumes with a short story for each day of the year, Pirandello's magnum opus comprises the 215 tales he was able to write before his death. The philosophically complex stories are tinged with irony and absurdity and vividly display the author's genius for storytelling and for creating unforgettable characters. Besides poignantly representing human nature, the diversity of themes, styles, and structures presented in the collection also serve as a portrait of Italy--and especially of Sicily--during the 1920s and 1930s. Publicado por primera vez en espanol, esta coleccion de tres volumenes contiene todos los cuentos que escribio Luigi Pirandello, ganador del Premio Nobel de Literatura. Originalmente concebida como una coleccion de 24 volumenes con un cuento para cada dia del ano, la obra maestra de Pirandello consiste de los 215 cuentos que escribio antes de su muerte. Los cuentos filosoficamente complejos estan marcados por lo ironico y lo absurdo y muestran vividamente el talento del autor para la narracion y su gran capacidad para crear personajes inolvidables. Ademas de representar la condicion humana de manera conmovedora, la diversidad de temas, estilos y estructuras presentadas en la coleccion sirven tambien como un retrato de Italia--especialmente Sicilia--durante los 20 y los 30. |
