In the novellas, Cervantes blends and bends genres just as he does in Don Quijote. Among the titles are The Generous Lover, The English Spanish Girl, The Power of Blood, The Jealous Old Man from Extremadura, The Two Damsels, and The Dogs' Colloquy. Many of the stories have been translated into English, but the last translation of the entire collection was over a century ago. Footnotes explain obscure references.
