		Quiroga, un dandy refinado a los veinte, devino a través de los años tragedias y desengaños, un escritor excéntrico, seductor y con pretensiones de náufrago.
		La trágica vida de Horacio Quiroga, llena de suicidios y muertes, llegó a obsesionarlo de tal manera que logró que todos sus cuentos y novelas tuvieran un contenido macabro y morboso.
		Aunque en sus comienzos Quiroga acusa un predominio de amaneramientos modernistas, con un abundante uso de galicismos, a medida que va adquiriendo experiencia y oficio evoluciona hacia un estilo propio.

	Biografia de Horacio Quiroga
		En 1900 Horacio Quiroga realizó un viaje por Europa y a su regreso constituyó con sus amigos un cenáculo conocido como el «Consistorio del Gay Saber», que él acaudillaba y donde a la devoción por Poe se sumaba la lección de Leopoldo Lugones.
		Inmediatamente partió a Misiones, donde se radicó -con breves intervalos de permanencia en Buenos Aires- y cuyo paisaje logró hacer revivir en sus cuentos con trazos que recuerdan a Kipling o al mismo Poe.
		La biografía de Horacio Quiroga, tocada por un signo trágico (la muerte accidental de su padre, el suicidio de su primera mujer y otras circunstancias), estuvo impregnada por la obsesión de la muerte; él mismo, tras declarársele una grave enfermedad, acabó con su vida en febrero de 1937 al saber que padecía un mal incurable.

		It is not fair to judge Quiroga's style based only upon the cruelty of "La Gallina Degollada" (The decapitated chicken), which -by the way- is a lesson on how to write short stories.
		Quiroga and Antoine Artaud seem to be the prodigal sons of the cinema.
		Horacio Quiroga gives us a world of darkness in this collection: morphine-addled beauties, desperate lovers, demented children, suicidally apathetic sailors, all walking the landscape of a strict, not quite repressive, Latin society.
