Varios relatos anteriores al momento en que García Márquez se consolidara como uno de los íconos de la narrativa latinoamericana. Un compendio de textos que experimentan con la ambigüedad de las sensaciones subjetivas de una forma deliciosa. Al leer este libro uno empieza a pensar que todos están muertos hasta que se demuestre lo contrario.

Something is terrifying about Marquez's style.
The very worked style adapts well to the morbidity of the subjects; the stories are complex. It is a beautiful little fantastic, dreamlike novel, but it should not abuse it.

Mis cuentos favoritos fueron "Nabo, el negro que hizo esperar a los ángeles (1951)" y "La mujer que llegaba a las seis (1950)".

Se siente como los cuentos comienzan a tener una estructura característica mientras pasan los años ya que están en orden cronológico, pero se nota esa obsesión constante que tiene el autor con la muerte en toda la colección aunque prevalece en los primeros tres, que son bastante poco sutiles con este concepto.

A short stories collection (earliest - the author was in his 20s) , some are simply stunning, while others are kind of hard to digest
