«El diablo de la botella» is the fantasy short story by Robert Louis Stevenson, published by Alianza Editorial in paperback (62 pages, in Spanish).
Keawe, a Hawaiian who travels to San Francisco, meets a melancholy man who owns a white glass bottle inhabited by a demon that grants wishes. Whoever possesses it must resell it for less money before dying or lose their soul. Keawe buys it and fulfills his dream of having a great house in Hawaii, but the price of the pact leads him to a desperate race to get rid of the bottle.
The story originally appeared in 1891 under the title 'The Bottle Imp'. This edition belongs to the Alianza Cien collection.
For readers of classics and short stories: a gateway to Stevenson's narrative with fantastic and horror elements.
