«Siete cuentos góticos» is Karen Blixen's collection of gothic tales, published by Unidad Editorial in hardcover (381 pages, in Spanish).
The volume brings together seven tales set in aristocratic and gothic environments, with echoes of romanticism and traditional stories. Action is subordinated to reflection, symbolism and psychological characterization, and the prose flows with evocative slowness. Among the stories are «Las carreteras de Pisa» and «El mono».
The original work is «Seven Gothic Tales», from 1934. This edition belongs to the collection «Las 100 obras del milenio»; it includes a prologue by Soledad Puértolas and a translation by Heliodoro Pardo Marcos.
For readers of twentieth-century classics and the gothic tale who appreciate dense prose and stories with psychological settings.
