Overview
La gran novela de amor y aventuras de Adolfo Bioy Casares, que definió con ella el curso de la literatura argentina.
Hito de la literatura fantástica, La invención de Morel (1940) es una novela de amor y aventuras sobre los extraños acontecimientos que descubre un fugitivo al llegar a una isla desierta, en la que de pronto se manifiestan habitantes espectrales.
Gracias a la brillante imaginación De Adolfo Bioy Casares, lo inexplicable hallará su razón de ser en un asombroso postulado científico, pero entretanto el narrador caerá presa de sus impulsos más irracionales, hasta vislumbrar no solo la realización de una pasión imposible, sino una suerte de inmortalidad.
Sobre la obra: «No me parece una imprecisión o una hipérbole calificarla de perfecta». Jorge Luis Borges
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
Jorge Luis Borges declared The Invention of Morel a masterpiece of plotting, comparable to The Turn of the Screw and Journey to the Center of the Earth.
Set on a mysterious island, Bioy's novella is a story of suspense and exploration, as well as a wonderfully unlikely romance, in which every detail is at once crystal clear and deeply mysterious.
Inspired by Bioy Casares’s fascination with the movie star Louise Brooks, The Invention of Morel has gone on to live a secret life of its own. Greatly admired by Julio Cortázar, Gabriel García Márquez, and Octavio Paz, the novella helped to usher in Latin American fiction’s now famous postwar boom.
