SHORT STORIES: INTERVIEW WITH EUGENIA RICO



Do you like reading short stories? I loooove them! Eugenia Rico has really good ones too.

Here's an interview with her with some interesting thoughts on the genre, such as this one:

"El cuento es literatura en estado puro. El cuento es como un relámpago que ilumina la noche y nos deja recordando lo que vimos con los ojos cerrados. El cuento es una historia que comienza a suceder en tu cabeza en el mismo momento en que se termina su última página."

    Wonderful similes!!
    I am also very fond of short stories. In Spanish I love Julio Cortazar's ones; in English, it's hard to choose, apart from Angela Carter's, A.S. Byatt's are the first ones that come to my mind.
    Thanks for the post!

    And of course, I couldn't forget Poe's tales, LONG LIVE POE!!
