Sinopsis

Carson McCullers transmitió con una maestría insuperable la grandeza y la tragedia del alma humana. Su obra ha seducido a generaciones de lectores, mientras la crítica la encumbraba en el pedestal de los clásicos del siglo xx. El aliento del cielo comprende la totalidad de sus cuentos y sus tres novelas cortas, Reflejos en un ojo dorado, La balada del café triste y Frankie y la boda. - Rodrigo Fresán enriquece esta edición con un revelador retrato de la singularísima vida y la obra de McCullers.
