Montevideanos

Mario Benedetti

SHORT STORIES. BOOKET, 2022 (NEW EDITION), 224 PAGES

Portraits of a city through endearing characters.

From an intimate and at the same time universal perspective, Mario Benedetti portrays a city, the Uruguayan capital, through endearing characters. These stories are the expression of the gray life and the empty time of the middle class inhabitants of the city. Benedetti installs his critical and humorous gaze where charlatans, rogues, drunkards, hypocrites and unforgettable characters provoke a smile of complicit tenderness.

The stories of Montevideanos, which were first published in 1959, were the author's first narrative texts to receive unanimous critical and public acclaim.
