«Las máscaras» is the short story collection by Jorge Edwards, published by Bruguera in paperback (220 pages, in Spanish).
The stories portray young people from the Chilean bourgeoisie of the 1960s trapped between inherited traditions and a family in decline, as they experience loneliness, love and sex. Self-absorbed and obsessed with themselves, they witness the family's collapse and the country's social reorganization in a narrative of precise prose.
First short story collection by Jorge Edwards, published in 1980 as number 699 of Bruguera's Libro Amigo collection. Jorge Edwards received the Cervantes Prize in 1999.
For readers of Latin American fiction and short stories that explore family life and social change.
