El cuento de humor inglés Antología Cuentos Ed. NEED. Buenos Aires. 1997, 187 págs.
En riguroso orden (son ingleses después de todo), hacen su aparición algunos de los más granados autores de los siglos XIX y XX: Chesterton, Galsworthy, Jerome, Aldington, Mansfield, Barrie, Kipling, Leacock, Wells y Saki. Antes de cada escrito, una breve presentación –no es propio hablar con extraños–, y entonces sí, roto el hielo, podemos aventurarnos a la lectura. Encontraremos agudezas paradigmáticas de los autores, ésas que germinan en campos repletos de sonrisas sin temor a marchitarse por algunas carcajadas. La fácil lectura no exime las posibles reflexiones que surgen al contacto con lo que de risible tiene la naturaleza humana (casi todo). Si los autores engalanaron sus escritos con una intención –crítica, polémica o filosófica–, el husmear o no en ella es prerrogativa de quien lee. Al lector simple, como el que esta obra reseña, le bastará solazarse con estas pinceladas de despiadada genialidad que fueron escritas y se leen, no cabe duda, con una agridulce sensación de desengaño: en cuestiones mundanas, nada es tan serio como para tomarlo en serio.
