Spanish writer, intellectual, and feminist Emilia Pardo Bazán (1851-1921) was a master of the short form and practitioner of the style that became known as naturalism. This collection gathers twenty-seven of her stories in English translation, revealing the narrative complexity, keen psychological insight, and careful attention to realistic detail that was characteristic of her work. The highly symbolic titular story, "The White Horse," qualified Pardo Bazán as the godmother of the Generation of '98, the group of writers who exhorted Spain to rid itself of inertia and fixation on past glories. Influenced by the work of Guy de Maupassant and Émile Zola, Pardo Bazán's themes are fear, love, hatred, forgiveness, cruelty, repentance, homesickness, and madness--that is, naked reality as experienced across social strata in her time.
