Synopsis "Cuentos y relatos completos (in Spanish)"

En Cuentos completos se reúnen relatos y cuentos escritos por Virginia Woolf. Autora también de novelas y con una vasta producción ensayística, la literatura de Virginia Woolf puede observarse pulida y prolija a través de sus cuentos y relatos breves, como en La sociedad: "Así comenzó todo. Éramos un grupo de seis o siete reunidas después del té. Algunas miraban hacia la sombrerera de enfrente, donde las plumas rojas y las pantuflas doradas seguían iluminadas en la vidriera; otras dejaban pasar el tiempo construyendo pequeñas torres de azúcar en el borde de la bandeja del té.

Pasado un momento, según lo recuerdo, nos ubicamos alrededor del fuego y comenzamos, como de costumbre, a elogiar a los hombres. Qué fuertes, qué nobles, qué inteligentes, qué valientes, qué bellos eran; y cómo envidiábamos a aquellas que, por las buenas o por las malas, lograban unirse a uno de por vida. Hasta que Poll, que había permanecido en silencio hasta el momento, rompió a llorar. Poll, debo admitirlo, siempre ha sido algo extraña. Para empezar, su padre era un hombre extraño. Le dejó una fortuna en su testamento, pero con la condición de que leyera todos los libros de la biblioteca de Londres. Intentábamos consolarla lo mejor que podíamos, pero en el fondo sabíamos que era inútil."

Virginia Woolf was born in London on January 25, 1882, and died on March 28, 1941, drowned in the River Ouse. After her father's death, the well-known man of letters Sir Leslie Stephen, Virginia and her sister Vanessa left the elegant Kensington neighborhood and moved to the bohemian Bloomsbury, which named the brilliant literary group formed around the Stephen sisters. Among its members were T. S. Eliot, Bertrand Russell, Vita Sackville-West, and the writer Leonard Woolf, whom Virginia married and with whom she ran the prestigious Hogarth Press. From her early works, Virginia Woolf highlighted her intention to take novels beyond mere narration. In Mrs. Dalloway (1925) and To the Lighthouse (1927), the author expressed the inner feelings of the characters with her own techniques, achieving great psychological effects through images, metaphors, and symbols. Her technique was consolidated with Orlando (1931) and The Waves (1931), which secured her an indisputable place within the finest world literature. Additionally, Woolf wrote essays as famous as A Room of One's Own (1929), which still inspires new generations of women today, literary criticism articles like those compiled in The Common Reader (1925, 1932) and in Genius and Ink (2021), or the biography of the English poet Elizabeth Barrett's dog, Flush (1933). All these works are published by Lumen.
