the nightingale and the rose by oscar wilde

Podés invertir horas, días, semanas o incluso meses en un libro largo y puede ser malo, bueno, o, si sos suficientemente afortunado, un perfecto diez. ¡Esto fue simplemente PERFECTO! Esto es exactamente por lo que amo los cuentos cortos. Un compasivo ruiseñor se siente tan conmovido por su profundo pesar que decide ayudarlo a ganar su corazón. Un joven estudiante esta locamente enamorado de la hija del profesor, pero ella no irá al baile con él sin rosas rojas. Because this tiniest thing of a handful of pages that can be hardly called a book, truly deserves its own review, and my five stars. So that’s why I’m opening a new shelf and will be adding the most memorable short stories I’ve ever read.

For me, this tiny story is one of those invaluably unique examples. On the other hand, sometimes you can invest as much as ten or twenty minutes in a short story, and be rewarded just the same, or even immensely more! Short stories may not have a detailed setting, a complex plot or unforgettable characters, yet just the same they can sometimes leave you a message that will truly stay with you forever, and just for the price of a couple of minutes. You can invest hours, days, weeks or even months in a long book and it can either be bad, good, or, if you are lucky enough, a perfect ten. This was just PERFECT! This is exactly why I love short stories. A compassionate nightingale feels so moved by his deep sorrow that decides to help him win her heart. A young student is madly in love with the professor’s daughter, but she won’t go to the dance with him without red roses.
