Where the Brave Die, Hernán Rivera Letelier’s only volume of short stories, presents us with a poetic imaginary world in which the author’s play on language, element of surprise, and humor stand out, ranging from total irreverence to the most profound social reflection.

The themes that appear in these stories outline some of the motifs that characterize Rivera Letelier’s prose, such as life in the pampas, bars, boleros, one-night stands, and the life of the working class.

Short, varied stories, possessing an effective sense of humor and humor with meaning.
