《海洋与大地的故事》【内容简介】
农民、织布工、铁匠、演员、寺庙学徒、学生、律师、小偷、官员的儿子、机械工、水稻种植工、修路工……他们的名字是一样的，他们的面孔是一样的，他们的死亡是一样的。
没有经历过的人是无法感同身受的。他们无法理解死亡的恐惧如何掐住我们的咽喉，无法想象苦痛以何种方式笼罩着我们的生活，也不会明白我们的命运是如何被人玩弄于股掌之间。
哥伦比亚作家、诗人阿尔瓦罗·穆蒂斯的短篇集，收录了作者从1960年起陆续发表、出版的短篇小说和叙事性文章。
监狱记事，热带哥特故事，历史与传说，被焚毁作品的残余，马克洛尔未完的故事……在这些短小的叙事中，穆蒂斯书写人类的痛苦、团结、不公，书写那些湮没在历史中，光照不到的人和事。

The Story of the Sea and the Earth
Farmers, weavers, blacksmiths, actors, temple apprentices, students, lawyers, thieves, sons of officials, mechanics, rice growers, road builders... Their names are the same, their faces are the same, their deaths are the same.
People who haven't experienced it can't relate to it. They cannot understand how the fear of death grips us by the throat. They cannot imagine the ways in which pain envelops our lives. They cannot understand how our fates are manipulated.
A collection of short stories and narrative essays by Alvaro Mutis, a Colombian writer and poet, published since 1960.
Prison records, tropical Gothic stories, history and legends, remnants of the burned works, the unfinished story of Makhlol... In these short narratives, Mutis writes about human suffering, solidarity, injustice, and the people and things that are lost in history and cannot be illuminated.
【 About the author 】
Alvaro Mutis (1923-2013) was a Colombian poet, novelist, and critic.
The son of a diplomat, he grew up shuttling between Europe and Colombia in a half-loaded, half-loaded boat;
He worked in public relations for Standard Oil, Pan Am and Columbia Pictures, as a journalist, as a radio anchor and as an infomercial host;
His ramblings drew spectators to ambush him on street corners with guns drawn;
He embezzled corporate charity funds to support cultural "Don Quixote" causes, fled abroad, and was arrested and imprisoned;
He was a close friend of Marquez, always the first reader of his manuscripts...
He wrote poetry in his early years, and in his 1953 collection of poems, Loselementosdeldesastre (Elements of Disaster), he first appeared as the character of "Maclore the watchman" : unfortunate voyages, absurd work, the death of beauty... In 1986, he began to write novels centered on Maclore, creating one of the most important literary figures in the Spanish-speaking world of the 20th century.
He was awarded the Colombian National Prize for Literature in 1974, the Prince of Asturias Prize for Literature in 1997 and the Ibero-American Queen Sofia Prize for Poetry in Spain, and the Cervantes Prize in 2001.
