«Historias de amor» is the collection of eighteen short stories by Adolfo Bioy Casares, published by Alianza in paperback (225 pages, in Spanish).
Adolfo Bioy Casares brings together eighteen short stories that explore love with distancing humour and scepticism. There are men who lose what they have for desiring what belongs to others, a woman who lives in the memory of two rivals, crimes committed to defend intimacy, and two estranged lovers who wake up a century later.
«Historias de amor» belongs to the Biblioteca Bioy Casares and the original work dates from 1973; this Alianza edition is from 1975.
For readers of short stories and twentieth-century Argentine narrative, interested in the distancing humour characteristic of Bioy Casares.
Adolfo Bioy Casares was an Argentine fiction writer, journalist, diarist, and translator. He was a friend and frequent collaborator of his fellow countryman Jorge Luis Borges. He is the author of the Fantastique novel The Invention of Morel.
