*Cuentos para vencer a la muerte* is a Spanish-language short-story collection by José de la Colina. The 1955 edition presents a compact 77-page volume whose title frames storytelling as a response to mortality, suggesting fiction that turns toward fear, endurance, and the human attempt to confront what cannot be escaped. As an early published work, it offers a concise point of entry into the author's literary concerns and into mid-century Spanish-language narrative forms. The available record does not provide individual story titles or plot details, so the collection is best understood bibliographically as a brief work of fiction organized around the symbolic challenge implied by its title: meeting death through imagination, language, and narrative resistance.
