I'm an educator in America. I know English, and I'm in the process of learning Spanish to communicate with students, but I really don't like the language very much.

Recommend me books that will show me the good side of the language.

I'm fairly proficient, I'm a second year student at a nearby university where I'm being sponsored to get a degree in the language, but it's been purely out of a feeling of obligation.


I need the practice of active reading in the language anyway.

Read some Puig, he is an easy and good read. Boquitas Pintadas and El Beso de la mujer araña are good.

Miguel de Unamuno - Niebla
Jorge Luis Borges - El Aleph
Xavier Villaurrutia - Nocturnos

From the latter:

SOÑAR, soñar la noche, la calle, la escalera
Y el grito de la estatua desdoblando la esquina.
Correr hacia la estatua y encontrar sólo el grito,
querer tocar el grito y solo hallar el eco,
querer asir el eco y encontrar sólo el muro
y correr hacie el muro y tocar un espejo.
hallar en el espejo la estatua asesinada,
sacarla de la sangre de su sombra,
vestirla en un cerrar de ojos,
acariciarla como a una hermana imprevista
y jugar con las fichas de sus dedos
y contar a su oreja cien veces cien cien veces
hasta oírla decir: “estoy muerta de sueño”.
>>
Unamuno - Niebla
Azorín - La voluntad (Warning, might need to look up the historical and political context of the Spain Azorin lived to understand it.)

People who would minimize Borges do not deserve to breathe.
