Synopsis "La Invasión (in Spanish)"

Varios años después de publicar La invasión (1967); Ricardo Piglia reescribió los relatos que integraban el libro siguiendo la máxima de Hemingway; según la cual todo lo que se saque de un relato no hará más que mejorarlo. A las diez narraciones primitivas se sumaron otras cinco; aparecidas en revistas literarias; y dos más que escribió durante el proceso. Piglia partió de la misma situación inicial; consciente de que «la misma historia con otros protagonistas es otra historia (y sin embargo en un sentido es también la misma)». Lo es; en efecto; ya que en todos los relatos emergen los temas que conforman su imaginario: la revisión crítica de la historia de Argentina; la frontera entre ficción y realidad; o las tramas metaliterarias donde sus autores de cabecera aparecen como un personaje más.

Ricardo Piglia (Adrogué, 1941-Buenos Aires, 2017) is unanimously considered a classic of current Spanish-language literature. He published his five novels at Anagrama: Artificial Respiration, The Absent City, Burnt Money (adapted into film by Marcelo Piñeyro; Planeta Prize Argentina), Nocturnal Target (Critics' Prize, Rómulo Gallegos Prize, International Dashiell Hammett Novel Prize, and José María Arguedas Casa de las Américas Narrative Prize) and The Path of Ida; the stories of The Invasion, False Name, Perpetual Prison and The Cases of Commissioner Croce; and the texts of Brief Forms (Bartolomé March Critic's Prize), Criticism and Fiction, The Last Reader, and Personal Anthology, which can be read as the first essays and attempts at a future autobiography, which crystallizes in The Diaries of Emilio Renzi, divided into three volumes. Piglia was also awarded the Grand Prize of Honor of the Argentine Writers Society, the José Donoso, the Ibero-American Narrative Manuel Rojas, the Konex, and the Formentor de las Letras. The critical reception of this author in Spain was truly exceptional: "Spectacular landing" (Ignacio Echevarría, El País); "One of the most lucid minds in the current Latin Hispanic American scene, not only Argentine" (Joaquín Marco, El Mundo); "There are few necessary writers who are demonstrating, today, the vitality of their intellectual proposals" (Jordi Carrión, Avui); "Ricardo Piglia, the classic rebel" (J. A. Masoliver Ródenas, La Vanguardia)
