Tradiciones peruanas

by Ricardo Palma

Tradiciones Peruanas is a collection of short stories by Ricardo Palma that narrate various moments and characters from Peruvian history.

Blending elements of chronicle and fiction, Palma employs a dynamic, entertaining, and unique style that has led some to consider his work as a distinct literary genre. Tradiciones Peruanas stands as a significant landmark in the history of Hispanic American literature.
