«Cuando llega la penumbra» is Jaume Cabré's short story collection, published by Ediciones Destino in hardback (288 pages, in Spanish).
Narratives featuring characters on the fringes of the law: a boy who defies his teacher, a killer who confesses to his victim, a thief fascinated by the stolen painting, a writer who threatens his editor, or an old man retracing the scenes of his war. Stories that interweave with dynamism, humour and fantasy, touched by darkness and irony, with the narrative leaps and shifts in perspective characteristic of the author.
Volume in the Áncora & Delfín collection. Originally published in Catalan as «Quan arriba la penombra». Spanish edition translated by Concepció Cardeñoso Saenz de Miera.
Recommended for readers of contemporary literary fiction and followers of short fiction with a thriller atmosphere.
Jaume Cabré i Fabré is a Catalan philologist, novelist and screenwriter. He was one of the founders of the Catalan literary collective, Ofèlia Dracs.
