Summary | "Cuentos Clásicos del Norte, Segunda Serie" by Washington Irving, Nathaniel Hawthorne, and Edward Everett Hale is a collection of classic short stories written in the early 20th century. This compilation brings together notable pieces from three prominent American authors, showcasing their varied narratives that reflect the cultural and historical essence of early American life. The opening of this collection introduces readers to the character of Rip Van Winkle, a man described as simple and good-natured, who struggles against the expectations of his wife and the responsibilities of rural life. We learn about his relationships with the townsfolk and his deep-seated aversion to hard work, which ultimately leads him to escape into the mountains. There, he encounters strange figures and imbibes from a mysterious barrel, resulting in a long, magical sleep. Upon awakening, he finds that he has missed significant changes in the world around him, and his journey serves as a poignant commentary on the passage of time and societal transformation.
