EL DINOSAURIO
Augusto Monterroso
..........
"The Dinosaur", by Agusto Monterroso, is
wrongly considered the shorttest story in spanish language. It has only one
sentence with seven words (nine if we consider the two from the title).
Augusto Monterroso is one of the best short stories
authors. Humour and irony are usual in his stories. He said "The
Dinosaur" can be read and understood from many points of views.
In 2000 he won the Príncipe de Asturias de las Letras
Prize as recognition for his literary work.
