"The word of the mute” by Julio Ramón Ribeyro
“Ribeyro's short story production conveys the longings, outbursts and anguish of his characters through clean prose and a style far removed from artifice, offering one of the greatest examples of short fiction in the Western world. The word of the mute is responsible for giving a voice to those characters who are deprived of it in everyday life: the marginalized, the forgotten, those condemned to an underground existence. All this has a place in this hundred stories where each sentence is absolutely essential.”
