An edition of the short stories Rafael Barrett continues to rescue a work that begins to be valued beyond the romantic figure of the author.
Rafael Barrett belongs to that class of writers. Son of an Englishman and an aristocratic Madrid, Barrett was born in Spain, where his life was intellectual dandy, riding the new modernizing currents of the now famous and Generation of '98 Pío Baroja to the head. Dazzled by the new life to South America, came to Buenos Aires in 1903 without a single penny in his pocket, as he had squandered almost all (if not all) of their inheritance.
