Abstract Juan Eduardo Zúñiga’s work stands out among that of his peers and in the current literary landscape. With Misterios de las noches y los días (1992) hegave one more proof of his exceptionality. In this set of very short stories, he immerses himself in the fantastic genre to reflect on human passions, in the line of Turguéniev’s work. The aesthetics of the grotesque hermeticism dominates these mysteries in its two directions: the romantic and the realistic, according to Bakhtin; the fantastic and satirical, according to Kayser. The present analysis focuses these fictions under this prism and stops at the evolution of some outstanding stories. In these fables the unilaterality of pre-modern hermeticism is transformed into a thought and an aesthetic that encompasses several points of view.
