Selected Writings

More about the book

Jules Supervielle's work is characterized by a unique blend of clarity and subtlety, reflecting a child's insightful perspective. His fables and poetry illuminate everyday life with a quiet, almost impersonal touch, avoiding the dramatic imagery typical of his contemporaries. The included novel, "The Man Who Stole Children," explores deep emotional themes through a fantastical premise about neglected children. This edition features a comprehensive collection of his stories, poems, and the complete novel, showcasing his influence and the vast landscapes of Uruguay.
