ENGLISH DESCRIPTION The Other Adventure and Other Stories gathers five non-fiction works Bioy Casares wrote between 1968 and 1999. This non-fiction volume opens with The Other Adventure (1968), a series of prologues and papers he wrote, among which stand out an analysis about the originality of La Celestina and a valuable note regarding his friendship with Borges. In Memories of La Pampa and the Gauchos (1970), Bioy explores the multiple resonances of these words, which to him are a source of anxiety, but to most Argentinians are of common touristic use. The hilarious and satirical Dictionary of the Exquisite Argentinian (1971) includes true findings. A Few Days in Brazil (1991) is a travel journal he wrote in 1960, within the context of a PEN Club congress. And Of Wonderous Things (1999), luminous reflection to help us learn more about ourselves.
