Silvina Ocampo: Selection

Silvina Ocampo

To lighten your reading somewhat during reading week, I suggest that we don’t need to cover all the stories in Silvina Ocampo’s La furia. This is the list of what I do want you to have read:

  • La liebre dorada
  • La casa de azúcar
  • Mimoso
  • El cuaderno
  • La sibila
  • Las fotografías
  • La propiedad
  • Los objetos
  • La furia
  • Carta perdida en un cajón
  • El verdugo
  • El vestido de terciopelo
  • Los sueños de Leopoldina
  • La boda
  • La paciente y el médico
  • Voz en el teléfono
  • La oración
  • El goce y la penitencia
  • La raza inextinguible
