The Three-Cornered Hat
El sombrero de tres picos · Pedro Antonio de Alarcón, 1874
Translated from the Spanish and introduced by Inés Bou
Andalusia, early nineteenth century. His Worship the Corregidor is the law. At least,
so long as he keeps his hat on his head. When the magistrate comes calling at the mill on the road outside
the city to pursue the beautiful miller’s wife, neither the authority of his three-cornered hat nor
the splendour of his scarlet cloak will protect him from Tía Frasquita’s wit.

Sunstroke: A Love Story
Insolación · Emilia Pardo Bazán, 1889
Translated from the Spanish and introduced by Inés Bou
A woman wakes in a darkened Madrid bedroom with her head splitting, orders
lime-blossom tea, and begins composing the account she will have to give her confessor. Her maid has
already supplied the opening line of it: too much sun. Asís Taboada, the widowed Marquesa de Andrade,
is willing to believe her.
