This seventh book of the bilingual edition of the Cuentos Grotescos by Venezuelan writer José Rafael Pocaterra contains five stories on one of the author's favourite subjects: past love. In this evocative collection, Pocaterra invites us into the many faces of love: the kind that poisons yet lures us back, the flame that reignites against all odds, and the fragile love that lives only in dreams. But love extends far beyond passion between two souls. It binds families in ties both tender and turbulent. It tests our devotion not only to people but also to the crafts, callings, and passions that shape our lives. Can such love endure trials of the heart? In this book, you'll find the original and translations of the following stories:
Redención - Redemption
El vals antiguo - The ancient waltz
Familia prócer - An eminent family
El ideal de Flor - Flor's ideal
El arte de fabricar toneles - The art of barrel making questions for comprehensive reading per story - answers to the questions - wordlist - Spanish on the left page - English translation on the right page
