El regreso is a collection of short stories by Canadian author Alistair MacLeod, published in Spanish by RBA Libros. The stories explore the complexities of human relationships, family ties, and the landscapes of Cape Breton. With a measured and precise prose, MacLeod traces a map of deep emotions and lasting connections between miners, lumberjacks, farmers, and fishermen, as well as their wives and children, marked by memories and myths.
Alistair MacLeod was a Canadian novelist, short story writer and academic. His powerful and moving stories vividly evoke the beauty of Cape Breton Island's rugged landscape and the resilient character of many of its inhabitants, the descendants of Scottish immigrants, who are haunted by ancestral memories and who struggle to reconcile the past and the present. MacLeod has been praised for his verbal precision, his lyric intensity and his use of simple, direct language that seems rooted in an oral tradition.
