Adolfo Bioy Casares

"Lifelong friend and literary partner of Jorge Luis Borges, Adolfo Bioy Casares stands undoubtedly among the finest Argentine writers of the Twentieth Century. Fundamental to the development of fantastic genre and science fiction in the Rio de la Plata, his prose has been somehow neglected until recently by audiences outside Latin America. In 'Adolfo Bioy Casares. Borges, Fiction and Art', a group of leading scholars on Latin American Literature examines the full range of Bioy Casares' work through illuminating essays, offering a detailed historical, political and cultural contextualization of one of the finest author's from Argentina."
