About this listen
Una de las grandes novelas de Adolfo Bioy Casares, una historia fantástica con estremecedoras resonancias políticas
Publicada en 1969, bajo la dictadura de Juan Carlos Onganía, Diario de la guerra del cerdo narra en clave semifantástica un enfrentamiento entre jóvenes y viejos en el barrio porteño de Palermo, suscitado por un inexplicable odio intergeneracional.
De la noche a la mañana, unas pandillas de jóvenes violentos empiezan a atacar a ancianos y gente de edad, lo que trastoca la existencia del protagonista. Sus reacciones y la ambientación son realistas, pero el autor examina la cotidianidad a la luz de la fantasía y lo siniestro.
Con sus numerosas alusiones a la realidad política de su época, la novela se ha leído como una alegoría del principio de la lucha armada y la represión de Estado en la Argentina.
Please note: This audiobook is in Spanish.

Story
Un misterioso edificio construido en una isla en 1924, un diario escrito por un fugitivo encerrado en sí mismo que se enamora de una mujer impasible, y un comentarista que lo desautoriza en distintas notas al pie. Para la mayoría de los lectores —y qué difícil sería desmentirlos—, La invención de Morel es la obra maestra de Adolfo Bioy Casares, una novela con componentes filosóficos tan potente que llegó a influir, especialmente por medio de Lost, sobre el universo aún en boga de las series.

Story
Estos tres ensayos nacen de una ininterrumpida, apasionante y apasionada relación con Tirant lo Blanc. El primero aborda la idea de la novela total, anunciada quinientos años antes en este libro de caballerías: «Es la novela total. Novela de caballerías fantástica, histórica, social, erótica, psicológica: todas esas cosas a la vez y ninguna de ellas exclusivamente». El segundo ofrece una imagen más personal de Joan Martorell a través de sus cartas. El tercero defiende la importancia de «las palabras» en la obra.

Ambientada en los años treinta en una Buenos Aires fantasmal, El sueño de los héroes parte de la juerga que se dan Emilio Gauna y sus amigos durante tres noches de carnaval por los suburbios de la ciudad. Nada debería ser más mundano, pero al recordarla Gauna se convence de que en la última noche vivió «una prodigiosa aventura». Cuando intente repetirla tres años más tarde, el sueño de una revelación se convertirá en un enfrentamiento con su destino.

Un hombre parado ante un semáforo en rojo se queda ciego súbitamente. Es el primer caso de una «ceguera blanca» que se expande de manera fulminante. Internados en cuarentena o perdidos en la ciudad, los ciegos tendrán que enfrentarse con lo que existe de más primitivo en la naturaleza humana: la voluntad de sobrevivir a cualquier precio. Ensayo sobre la ceguera es la ficción de un autor que nos alerta sobre «la responsabilidad de tener ojos cuando otros los perdieron».

Bartosz and Angelika (he’s a chef, she’s a former sex worker) carry debts to the other couples they don’t even realize they owe. Over fourteen days, the couples bond—but their pasts are too deeply intertwined to stay hidden. The sly concierge, Putu, knows more than he lets on.

It’s 1984, and life has changed beyond recognition. Airstrip One, formerly known as Great Britain, is a place where Big Brother is always watching, and nobody can hide. Except, perhaps, for Winston Smith. Whilst working at the Ministry of Truth, rewriting history, he secretly dreams of freedom. And in a world where love and sex are forbidden, where it’s hard to distinguish between friend and foe, he meets Julia and O’Brien and vows to rebel.

The 13 chapters of The Art of War, each devoted to one aspect of warfare, were compiled by the high-ranking Chinese military general, strategist, and philosopher Sun-Tzu. In spite of its battlefield specificity, The Art of War has found new life in the modern age, with leaders in fields as wide and far-reaching as world politics, human psychology, and corporate strategy finding valuable insight in its timeworn words.

Story
Lucas knows the perfect night entails just three things: video games, wine, and pad thai. Peanuts are a must! Other people? Not so much. Why complicate things when he’s happy alone? Then one day the apartment board, a vexing trio of authority, rings his doorbell. And Lucas’s solitude takes a startling hike. They demand to see his frying pan. Someone left one next to the recycling room overnight, and instead of removing the errant object, as Lucas suggests, they insist on finding the guilty party. But their plan backfires. Colossally.

Story
Who is Audrey Hoedemaker? It's a question her sister Maureen has heard more times than she can count, and she doesn't know what the short answer would be. Little sister, troubled teen, backpacker, musical theatre coach, con artist, childcare worker. Murderer. A tragic, traumatic childhood casts a long shadow on the Hoedemaker sisters. Maureen has worked hard to move beyond the violence of the past and build a good, honest life for herself. Audrey, however, just can't seem to do the same, careening from one state of chaos to another.

Obra maestra
Muy bien narrada. A la altura de esta obra maestra de Bioy Casares, que mantiene su vigencia ahora más que nunca. El conflicto entre los jóvenes y los viejos es más antiguo que la humanidad misma, por decirlo de alguna forma, pero aquí la narración alcanza ribetes universales de gran altura ; una novela inolvidable. La recomiendo 100 %
