This paper studies Silvina Ocampo’s stories as specular literature. La furia y otros cuentos presents a particularly interesting case of reflexivity, displayed in various combinations of iconic, thematic, intertextual, intratextual, stylistic and self-referential elements. Given that any reflection, whether of light, human beings, or inanimate things, always involves an image, in her stories mirrors not only double or multiply reflections; mirrors also modify what they reflect. While Ocampo’s work may be seen as a faithful but disconcerting reflection of ordinary human beings and events, it also reveals unknown aspects of a world we had first seen as familiar and known.
