«Leyendas de pasión» is the fiction book by Jim Harrison that brings together three short novels, published by RBA in paperback (288 pages, in Spanish).
In the autumn of 1914, the Ludlow brothers leave their ranch in Montana to enlist in the Great War, an experience that becomes a tragedy for the family and marks Tristan forever, the freest and most untamed, whose wandering life will lead him to become a legend. The volume also includes «Venganza», about a love that alters a man's course, and «El hombre que renunció a su nombre», featuring someone unable to give up his obsessions. The story that gives the collection its title was made into a film in 1994 by Edward Zwick with Brad Pitt, Anthony Hopkins and Aidan Quinn.
The volume belongs to the Otros Ficción collection, number 458. The original work, «Legends of the Fall», was published in 1979. Translation by Luis Alvear Gómez.
For readers of contemporary fiction and short stories seeking an approach to one of the great American narrators of the twentieth century.
