The story of Gerasim, a deaf and mute serf whose life of poverty is brought into sharp relief by his connection with Mumu, a dog he rescued, brought greater national attention to the cruelties of serfdom and received praise for its brutal portrayal of this institution in Russian society.

我不想搬出去

El nido
Alfredo Espino
Es porque un pajarito de la montaña ha hecho,
en el hueco de un árbol, su nido matinal,
que el árbol amanece con música en el pecho,
como que si tuviera corazón musical.

Si el dulce pajarito por entre el hueco asoma,
para beber rocío, para beber aroma,
el árbol de la sierra me da la sensación
de que se le ha salido, cantando, el corazón.
