Read The Dedalus Book of Spanish Fantasy Storyline:

This is an ambitious and wide-ranging collection of texts from the middle of the nineteenth century to the present day, by authors writing in Castilian, Basque, Catalan, and Galician. Very few of the stories have appeared in translation before and while some authors (Goytissolo, Atxaga, Mendoza and Marias) might be known to an English-reading public, most authors have never previously been translated into English. The stories have been selected to give the reader the frisson that one expects from the truly fantastic: from fabulous creatures and ghost stories to doppelgangers, from time travel to metamorphoses. The anthology is enriched by a wide variety of settings, characters, situations, themes and narrative modes which combine to produce one of the most important collections of Spanish literature to appear in English.
