Synopsis

This collection gathers stories written over half a century by Tomás Eloy Martínez, many previously unpublished. The narratives explore the complexities of Argentine reality, the Peronist era, exile, sexuality, and mortality. From a failed attempt to exchange the bodies of Evita and Aramburu to the life of a woman performing a daily choreography in a New York train station, these tales blend journalistic chronicle with imaginative fiction. They offer a look into the literary dimension of an essential author.
