Short Stories

Author: Julio Ramón Ribeyro The limeño Julio Ramón Ribeyro (1929-1994) is the greatest writer of Peruvian short stories. Deliberately given to the creation of a work that has already made him a classic, he has left us with a lucid and disenchanted vision, which we have become accustomed to calling pessimistic and where there is no place for shrillness or tragic elements. This selection includes seventeen stories by Julio Ramón Ribeyro. Among them, "The gallinazos without feathers", where it is shown as an eminently urban narrator. In all of them he makes a painting of Peru in a moment of economic and social change.
