Excerpt from In Exile, and Other Stories Nicky dyer and the schoolmistress sat upon the slope of a hill, one of a, low range overlooking an arid Californian valley. These sunburnt slopes were traversed by many narrow footpaths, descending, ascend ing, Winding among the tangle of poison oak and wild-rose bushes, leading from the miners' cabins to the shaft-houses and tun nels of the mine Which gave to the hills their only importance. Nicky was a stout Cornish lad of thirteen, With large light eyes that seemed mildly to protest against the sportive relation Which q broad, free kled, turned-up nose bore to the rest of his countenance; he was doing nothing in par ticular, and did it as if he were used to it. The schoolmistress sat With her skirts tucked round her ankles, the heels of her stout little boots driven well into the dry.

Excerpt from The Exiles: A Tale IN sending these pages into the world, I would wish, before everything else, to guard myself against the supposition that, in the background on which their contents are drawn, I have intended to give a picture of North America. As such, my book would be in the highest degree imperfect. It is not a, picture of America which I would here unroll before my readers, but American pictures, as, in my experience of many years, I have beheld them.

Excerpt from Stories of Exile The performance of this task has suggested the idea that, in romantic fiction, ours is the day of small things, - small as the diamond and the violet are small. Going freely through English literature to gather little classics, I have been surprised at finding so few that antedate the present century. Haw thorne, De Quincey, Poe, and Dr. Brown have put within the compass of a few pages as much plot and character, as much pathos, humor, human nature, metaphysical speculation, and dramatic effect, as commonly suffice for a full-length romance. The ponderous novel cannot be said to have had its day; but the indications are that it must soon cease to have more than its day. The work of art which, embodying a sacred principle or a living idea, condenses its plot, its moral, and its effective climax into the limits of a single sitting must, in an age of crowding books and rushing readers, possess a decisive advan tage over the unwieldy conventional novel, with its caravan of characters and its long bewilderment of detail. The Ark of the Deluge may crumble on the mountain, but the Ark of the Covenant is borne by the people through all their wanderings, and enshrined in the temple when they rest. If the prevailing cast of these tales is sombre and tragic, it is not from any design on the part of the compiler; it is because, being true to nature and to human experience, they follow the inevitable course of human destiny. In the broad light of our daily life lie the 'superficial, the ephemeral, and the inessential; in its shadow lie God's solemn mysteries and man's profoundest studies. That in us which humor appeals to is selfish, and finds its limit within the narrow boundary of one's own being. That which pathos awakens is sacrificial in its tendency, and stretches a protecting arm, or offers a sympathetic heart, to all the world.

Tales of risk and danger, suffering, disease, horror, and death. Tales, also, of courage and dignity, hard work, and human endurance in the face of hostile nature and the frequent brutality of men. And tales flavored with piquant touches of humor and bemused irony. These are the stories of the Uruguayan writer Horacio Quiroga, here presented in an important compilation of thirteen of his most compelling tales, sensitively selected and translated by J. David Danielson. Author of some two hundred pieces of fiction, often compared to the works of Kipling, Jack London, and Edgar Allan Poe, Quiroga set many of his stories in the territory of Misiones in northeastern Argentina, the subtropical jungle region where he spent much of his life. Included here are stories from Los desterrados (1926) often said to be his best book, as well as others from Cuentos de amor de locura y de muerte (1917), Anaconda (1921), and El Desierto (1924). The publication of this selection marks the first appearance in English of all but two of the thirteen stories. Quiroga here presents a wide range of characters: parents and children, servant girls and prostitutes, landowners and lumber barons, foremen and laborers, natives and immigrants, in stories pervaded by a vision of life that is elemental, incisive, and essentially tragic. The Exiles and Other Stories shows the versatility and skill that have made him a classic Spanish American writer. It complements and illumines The Decapitated Chicken and Other Stories, selected and translated by Margaret Sayers Peden, also published by the University of Texas Press.
