KING, JOHN
Spanish Short Stories 1 (Penguin Parallel Text).The eight short stories in this collection by Jorge Luis Borges, Gabriel Garcia Marquez, Camilo Jose` Cela and other writers in Spanish have been chosen both for their literary merit and for being representative of twentiethcentury SpanishAmerican writing. The English translations that are printed in a parallel text are literal rather than literary, and there are additional notes on the text. The volume is intended primarily to help Englishspeaking students of Spanish, but these stories stand on their own and make excellent reading in either language.
