Description: "Alemán (1928-70) is, with David Moya Posas, Pompeyo del Valle, Armando Zelaya, and Oscar Acosta, one of the most important Honduran short story writers of the 20th century, a national literature that has not found a niche in Central America. This volume includes the three collections he published between 1959-67. Generally focusing on the tribulations and disappointments of country life, stories such as 'Cuando sea Ministro,' 'Un Caso para el Dr. Morán,' and 'El Jarrón de los Mayas' show the complexity of which this talented writer was capable"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
