Com treze anos, Jorn já é o líder de uma gangue de crianças de rua. Ele só conhece a noite, a estação de trem decadente como seu refúgio e a lógica implacável do gueto. Ao seu lado: Nala, que parece

En este ingenioso pastiche temprano, Lovecraft adopta la voz del moralista del siglo XVIII Dr. Samuel Johnson, quien afirma haber sobrevivido mucho más allá de su propio siglo. Escrita en un estilo deliberadamente arcaico, la obra presenta las reflexiones de Johnson sobre el paso del tiempo, el declive de las buenas costumbres y el extraño progreso de la sociedad moderna. A traves de su humor seco y su erudita indignacion, el relato se burla con delicadeza tanto de la confianza de la Ilustracion en la razon como de la obsesion del mundo moderno por la novedad.

Narrado en forma de diálogo, el personaje "Consejero" le cuenta a un amigo su pasión platónica por Quintília, la soltera más codiciada de la ciudad de Río de Janeiro, que sentía una terrible aversión por el matrimonio. La amistad entre la pareja, surgida tras una apuesta entre el Consejero y su companero de trabajo Joo Nobrega, alimenta las ilusorias esperanzas del protagonista de declararse a la joven y, finalmente, casarse con ella. Machado de Assis, en este cuento, ironiza sobre la institucion matrimonial, jugando con la fuerza pasional y sus deseos.

"El Coloquio Entre Monos y Una" es un diálogo filosófico entre dos espíritus que se encuentran tras la muerte. A través de su intercambio, Poe reflexiona sobre la decadencia de la civilización, la corrupcion de los sentidos humanos y la trascendencia del alma mas alla del mundo fisico. Mezclando ciencia, espiritualidad y melancolia romantica, la historia medita sobre la muerte como un final y una transformacion hacia una conciencia superior.

En "Un Hombre Célebre", Machado de Assis retrata la ironía de la fama y el conflicto entre el talento y el deseo artístico. El relato sigue a un compositor que, a pesar de aspirar al reconocimiento por la creacion de obras eruditas, se hace famoso solo por sus polcas populares. La narracion explora la frustracion, la vanidad y el dilema entre el arte y el exito.

Narrado em forma de um diálogo, o personagem "Conselheiro" conta a um amigo sua paixão platônica por Quintília, a solteira mais cobiçada da cidade do Rio de Janeiro e que sofria de uma terrível avers

Narrated in the form of a dialogue, the character "Counselor" tells a friend about his platonic passion for Quintília, the most coveted single woman in the city of Rio de Janeiro, who suffered from a terrible aversion to marriage. The friendship between the couple, which arose after a bet between the Counselor and his work colleague Joo Nobrega, fuels the protagonists illusory hopes of declaring his love for the girl and, ultimately, marrying her. In this short story, Machado de Assis ironizes the institution of marriage, playing with the power of passion and desire.

Nesta pastiche espirituosa, Lovecraft adota a voz do moralista do século XVIII Dr. Samuel Johnson, que afirma ter sobrevivido muito além de seu próprio século. Escrita em um estilo deliberadamente arcaico, a obra apresenta as reflexes de Johnson sobre a passagem do tempo, o declinio dos costumes e o estranho progresso da sociedade moderna. Por meio de seu humor seco e indignaço erudita, o conto zomba gentilmente tanto da confiança do Iluminismo na razo quanto da obsesso do mundo moderno pela novidade.

In this witty early pastiche, Lovecraft adopts the voice of the eighteenth-century moralist Dr. Samuel Johnson, who claims to have survived far beyond his own century. Written in a deliberately archaic style, the piece presents Johnsons reflections on the passage of time, the decline of manners, and the strange progress of modern society. Through his dry humor and learned indignation, the tale gently mocks both the Enlightenments confidence in reason and the modern worlds obsession with novelty.
