110K0

The short story collection of Colombian writer and poet Alvaro Mutis includes the short stories and narrative articles that the author has published and published since 1960. Prison narratives, tropical Gothic stories, history and legends, remnants of burned works, Macroor's unfinished story... In these short narratives, Mutis writes about human pain, solidarity, injustice, and writes about people and things that are hidden in history and cannot be illuminated. Marquez said: "We are all Maclor." This eternal image in Mutis's works - the forever wandering lookout Maclor - reappears at the end of the collection of short stories, but in those chapters where he never appears, the generals, saints, fishermen, writers... Are not variants of Maclor.
