«El sueño de los héroes» is the novel by Adolfo Bioy Casares, published by Alianza in paperback (208 pages, in Spanish).
During three days of carnival in 1927 in Buenos Aires, Emilio Gauna lives a mysterious experience that conditions his life and his return to the same settings years later. The novel combines the portrait of a gang of friends and their escapades in the suburbs with the irruption of the fantastic, the confrontation with the shady Doctor Valerga and Gauna's passion for Clara. Identity, memory and the paradoxes of time intertwine in a story that mixes the everyday with a somber and dramatic tone.
