Cuentos de la selva es una colección de cuentos del escritor uruguayo Horacio Quiroga, publicados por primera vez en 1918. Los cuentos están ambientados en la selva misionera, en la frontera entre Argentina, Brasil y Paraguay, y tienen como protagonistas a animales que hablan y actúan como personas. Los cuentos son una mezcla de aventura, fantasía y moraleja, y buscan transmitir valores como la amistad, la solidaridad, el respeto a la naturaleza y la valentía ante la adversidad.
Horacio Silvestre Quiroga Forteza was a Uruguayan playwright, poet, and short story writer. The jungle settings of his stories emphasized the conflict between humans and nature. His portrayals of mental illness and hallucinatory states were influenced by Edgar Allan Poe. In turn, Quiroga influenced Gabriel García Márquez and Julio Cortázar.
