A new story by Father Finn! It will be glad news to many to learn that Father Finn has found time from his many duties to write a new story, and such a story! From the opening chapter to the last page of the book the interest never lags. The plot is very simple, turning on a prize contest for pianos offered by certain newspapers to the school, society or club that receives the greatest number of coupons. Of course, this calls for keen competition on the part of the young people of the city, and it is in this contest that Michael Desmond, "That Office Boy," figures prominently. The characters in the book are just those people that Father Finn delights in drawing—people that we meet every day, that we know intimately—good, straightforward folks and others, too, that we would not care to associate with. What the result of the contest is, who the successful competitors are, must be learned by reading the story.
Of course, there is a strain of Father Finn's delightful humor running through the book, with here and there a touch of genuine pathos that brings the tears to our eyes. Father Finn has so long been recognized as a master of fiction that he needs no words of commendation. Suffice it that "That Office Boy" is the equal of anything he has ever written. - Summary by American Catholic Quarterly Review

El caballero Carmelo es un cuento del escritor peruano Abraham Valdelomar, considerado por la crítica como lo mejor de toda su creación ficticia y uno de los cuentos más perfectos de la literatura peruana. Publicado el 13 de noviembre de 1913 en el diario La Nación de Lima, encabeza el conjunto de los cuentos denominados «criollos» o «criollistas», ambientadas durante la niñez del autor transcurrida en Pisco, una ciudad de la costa peruana, en medio del desierto. Contado en primera persona con un lenguaje tierno, conmovedor y ambientado en un entorno provinciano y rural, este cuento nos narra la historia de un viejo gallo de pelea llamado el Caballero Carmelo, que debe enfrentar a otro más joven, el Ajiseco. El Carmelo, sacando fuerzas de flaqueza, gana, pero queda gravemente herido y poco después muere, ante la consternación de sus dueños. Este es el tema central.
Como temas secundarios podemos mencionar la vida familiar en el hogar del protagonista-narrador (incluida las peripecias del gallo «Pelado») y la vida de los pescadores de la aldea San Andrés, cercana a Pisco. (Wikipedia)
