| Summary | "De carne y hueso; cuentos" by Eduardo Zamacois is a collection of short stories likely written in the late 19th century. The stories delve into the complexities of human passions, examining the intricate connections between love, hatred, and the essence of existence. The titular theme suggests a philosophical exploration of humanity's physical nature contrasted with the elusive concept of the soul. At the start of the anthology, the introduction presents a reflective dialogue on the dichotomy of flesh and spirit, hinting at the transient nature of life and the persistence of carnal desires over ethereal notions. The opening story, "Odio mortal," introduces Julia and Daniel Montoro, where a seemingly ordinary conversation about the unusual act of using ash to dry letters transforms into a profound revelation of Julia's passionate and vengeful sentiment towards her deceased husband. This sets the tone for the collection, imbued with themes of love, betrayal, and the darker undertones of human emotion that are set against the backdrop of late 19th-century societal expectations.
