Jungle Tales

The jungle is the omnipresent setting and character in these stories. The Misiones jungle, with its uncontrollable natural violence, facing man, sometimes an ally, more often a destroyer, of that wild nature. Humor and tragedy are effectively combined in these stories, resulting in anthological examples of that difficult art which is the short story, in which Quiroga revealed himself to be a true master. Stories: The giant tortoise. The flamingos' stockings. The bald parrot. The war of the yacarés. The blind doe. History of two coati cubs and two human cubs. The passage of the Yabebirí. The lazy bee.
