So far, I’ve read a poetry book on Libby called El Regalo that goes ‘yo soy alegría que tu serás tu y yo soy yo’ and I’m waiting to read Don Quijote on the same app.

Anyone know what ¿libros en español yo puede leer? I read clásico ficciones.

Try “El túnel” by Ernesto Sabato. As far as I remember, it doesn’t have a very complex vocabulary. However, the story it tells has a message that can be analyzed from somewhat more complex perspectives.

Pedro Páramo by Juan Rulfo. His book inspired my writers later on

Roberto Bolaño. 2666 and The Savage Detectives are great. He also wrote a ton of short stories. His writing is also pretty straightforward so it’s easy to follow if you’re still learning.

Luis Sepúlveda. The Old Man who Read Love Stories and The Story of a Seagull and the Cat Who Taught Her To Fly are both very good. The latter is more of a children’s book but still worth it.

This page contains a collection of many authors and short stories. I’ve found it helpful: Literatura.us

This is another great resource for popular books by country: https://preply.com/en/d/most-translated-books–lp

Anything from Jorge Luis Borges or Júlio Cortazar. Doesn’t matter the subject, it’s Spanish dancing and taking forms while you read.

Add Horacio Quiroga to make it a trifecta.
