«Maridos» is the short story collection by Ángeles Mastretta, published by Seix Barral in paperback (264 pages, in Spanish).
A series of stories about life as a couple: unfaithful husbands, forgiving lovers, widows, boyfriends who come and go. The thread is Julia Corzas, who during a chess game with her third husband recalls stories of love and heartbreak. With a colloquial, conspiratorial tone, Mastretta blends humor, misunderstandings and small shared victories.
Part of the Biblioteca Breve collection from Seix Barral. The edition was published on November 13, 2007.
Recommended for readers of contemporary fiction and short stories, especially those who enjoyed Mujeres de ojos grandes.
