El cuento es para Revueltas un género que exige suplir l. a. extensión por l. a. in¬tensidad, y que por lo tanto requiere del autor una difícil concentración de sus dones. Señalado desde el principio por l. a. crítica como un libro clave para l. a. narrativa mexicana, sus relatos suelen aparecer en las antologías y son ejemplo de sabiduría literaria. En su universo todo está en pugna y en claroscuro; los angeles íntima degarradura es los angeles más convincente prueba de l. a. condición humana de sus personajes, que luchan contra un mundo merciless, acaso indiferente, y deben además combatir algo que está dentro de ellos mismos.
