Adolfo Bioy Casares - A Invenção de Morel

A fugitive arrives on a remote island he believes to be deserted. However, one day he discovers he is not alone.

Hidden in the dense forest, he hears voices and melodies, spies on the intruders, to whom he seems invisible, and observes their strange routines. Here begins the mystery, the alternation between hallucination and reality, which leads him to fall in love with a woman whose existence is doubtful. The Invention of Morel (1940), the diary of a fugitive on the verge of madness and an impossible love, is Adolfo Bioy Casares' most celebrated book, a fantastic and adventurous novel, and a reflection on immortality and the boundaries of reality.
