«Los pájaros» is Daphne du Maurier's collection of horror stories, published by Planeta in paperback (248 pages, in Spanish).
The title story tells how birds, after a harsh winter and with scarce food, turn against humanity; a nightmare capable of stirring irrational fears that Alfred Hitchcock brought to the screen. The book also includes other short stories by the author.
1985 edition with translation by Adolfo Martín, number 49 in the Planeta Bestsellers collection. The original work was published in 1952.
For readers of horror and suspense classics, and for those who want to discover the literary origin of Hitchcock's famous film.
Dame Daphne du Maurier, Lady Browning, was an English novelist, biographer and playwright. Her parents were actor-manager Sir Gerald du Maurier and his wife, actress Muriel Beaumont. Her grandfather George du Maurier was a writer and cartoonist. Du Maurier spent much of her life in Cornwall, where most of her works are set. As her fame increased, she became more reclusive.
