Omschrijving

With stories about love, culture, adventure, religious differences and shocking endings, Exemplary Stories features dynamic protagonists and challenges tradition.

Featuring twelve novellas, Exemplary Stories features a diverse array of protagonists, accompanied by captivating prose. Among this collection of short fiction is The Little Gypsy Girl, a story about a wise, talented and beautiful young woman who requires her noble suitor to leave his old life behind and become a gypsy in order to win her hand in marriage. Using irony to expose the social contrasts in a rich city, Rinconte and Cortadillo features two thieves that travel to a new town with intentions to join a guild of criminals. The Liberal Lover depicts a couple who take each other for granted. During the downfall of their relationship, a tragic event separates the two, causing them to reconsider the way they treat each other. Inviting discussion on the pivotal role mental health plays in daily life, The Lawyer of Glass depicts a handsome young man named Thomas, who is well-known for his intelligence. Enamored by Thomas, a local woman brews a love potion and gets Thomas to drink it, unintentionally poisoning him. Though he is able to physically recover, Thomas is convinced that he is made of glass, changing him in a way the woman never intended to.
