Tales of Love, Madness and Death is the most representative work of Horacio Quiroga. In these 15 short stories, Quiroga handles himself with absolute mastery in the field of horror narration (he is often compared to Poe and Maupassant, as can be seen when reading such shocking stories as The Slaughtered Hen), and offers us one of the greatest examples of Latin American modernism. Quiroga deals with some of the most dangerous aspects of the jungle of South America, such as poisonous snakes, ants that eat living human beings, and parasites that kill.
