Adolfo Bioy Casares (Buenos Aires, 15 de septiembre de 1914-Buenos Aires, 8 de marzo de 1999) fue un escritor argentino, considerado uno de los autores más importantes de su país y de la literatura en español, siendo traducido a más de dieciséis idiomas y galardonado con el Premio Cervantes en 1990. Colaboró en varias ocasiones con Jorge Luis Borges bajo distintos pseudónimos, y, en menor medida, con su propia esposa, la escritora Silvina Ocampo. En su obra frecuentó géneros como la literatura fantástica, el policial y la ciencia ficción, destacando las novelas *La invención de Morel* (1940), *El sueño de los héroes* (1954) y *Dormir al sol* (1973). ---------- Adolfo Bioy Casares (Buenos Air
