«Cortejo de sombras» is the short story collection by Julián Ríos, published by Galaxia Gutenberg in hardcover (180 pages, in Spanish).
Tamoga, a remote village inspired by the author's native Galicia, is the setting for nine stories about love, family feuds and the ravages of war. A timeless voice traces the fates of Mortes, Sacramento Andreini, Palonzo, Luzdivina and Celso, amid secrets and echoes of a past marked by unreason.
Subtitled «La novela de Tamoga», it belongs to the Galaxia Gutenberg Narrativa series, number 50. Written in the late sixties, it remained unpublished for over thirty years until its release in 2008.
Aimed at readers of literary fiction and contemporary Spanish narrative, with an interest in rural and historical settings.
Julián Ríos is a Spanish writer, most frequently classified as a postmodernist, whom Mexican novelist Carlos Fuentes has called "the most inventive and creative" of Spanish-language writers. His first two books were co-written with Octavio Paz.
