Hermann Strohbach. Jacket photograph of Adolfo Bioy Casares, by Eduardo Comesana, courtesy of Suzanne Jill Levine. The Argentine Adolfo Bioy Casares, ' writes translator Suzanne Jill Levine, ?is an urbane comedian, a parodist who turns fantasy and science fiction inside out to explore the banality of our scientific, intellectual, and especially erotic pretensions. Behind his post-Kafka, pre-Woody Allen sense of nonsense is a metaphysical vision, particularly of life's brevity and the slippery terrain of love. ' His Selected Stories, chosen from various collections published from the mid-'50s to the late ?80s, is aptly divided into two parts, ?The Labyrinth of Love' and ?Adverse Miracles, ' ample frames for the author's amatory tales and wry magical realism. It is a fine introduction to one of Latin America's leading modern writer

Overview
Selected Stories, chosen from various collections published from the mid-'50s to the late '80s, is aptly divided into two parts, "The Labyrinth of Love" and "Adverse Miracles," ample frames for the author's amatory tales and wry magical realism. It is a fine introduction to one of Latin America's leading modern writers - and a choice retrospective of the master storyteller who won the 1990 Cervantes Prize, Spain's most prestigious literary award, for his lifetime work.
