Synopsis "Un Campeon Desparejo (in Spanish)"

Luis Ángel Morales es taxista y también un buen hombre que se mete en muchos lios casi sin enterarse. No obstante, sus amigos ven en él la replica obligada del campeon de boxeo Luis Ángel Firpo, "quien saco del ring a Dempsey"; por eso lleva su nombre. Pero Morales, a quien los pasajeros que recoge en su taxi terminan siempre por enredar en absurdas situaciones y a quien facilmente se le puede tomar el pelo, no es ningun heroe. Tampoco pretende serlo. Su unico deseo es encontrar algun dia por las calles de la ciudad a Valentina, de quien conserva el hermoso recuerdo de un amor huidizo. La idea obsesiva de que la perdio B"por falta de fe en si mismo"; es, de hecho, su unica fuente de valor y arrojo. Reencontramos aqui ese humor algo malevolo que surca casi toda la obra de Bioy y que induce a leerle con una sonrisa a veces incomoda, como desplazada, pero ineludible, casi obligada.

Adolfo Bioy Casares was born in Buenos Aires on September 15, 1914. Dedicated from a young age to literature, the publication of The Invention of Morel in 1940 marks the beginning of a vast literary career that he unfolded in short stories, novels, essays, diaries, and collaborative works with his wife, the writer Silvina Ocampo, and Jorge Luis Borges. Some of his most notable works include Plan de Evasión, El sueño de los héroes, Diario de la guerra del cerdo, Dormir al sol, La trama celeste, Historias desaforadas, Una muñeca rusa, and Una magia modesta. Decorated as a Knight of the Legion of Honor, he received, among other awards, the Municipal Literature Prize, the National Literature Prize, the Honor Prize from the Argentine Writers Society, the International Alfonso Reyes Prize, and the Cervantes Prize. He died in Buenos Aires on March 8, 1999.
