La gran novela de Adolfo Bioy Casares sobre una aventura cotidiana que poco a poco va cobrando tintes fantásticos.

Ambientada en los años treinta en una Buenos Aires fantasmal, El sueño de los héroes parte de la juerga que se dan Emilio Gauna y sus amigos durante tres noches de carnaval por los suburbios de la ciudad. Nada debería ser más mundano, pero al recordarla Gauna se convence de que en la última noche vivió «una prodigiosa aventura». Cuando intente repetirla tres años más tarde, el sueño de una revelación se convertirá en un enfrentamiento con su destino.

Desde su publicación en 1954, este clásico de la literatura argentina no ha dejado de fascinar a los lectores con su intrigante mezcla de lo fantástico y lo cotidiano.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

At the end of carnival 1927, Emilio Gauna had an experience that he knew was the culmination of his life. The problem is that Gauna can only dimly remember what happened: he was out on the town with his raucous, reckless friends when a masked woman appeared. Several hours later, gasping and horrified, Gauna awoke at the edge of a lake. Three years later, he tries to solve the mystery the only way he knows: by re-creating the same situation and reliving it- despite the warnings of his secret protector, the Sorcerer.

In The Dreams of Heroes, Adolfo Bioy Casares assembles magicians, prophetic and brave women, shamefully self-conscious men and Buenos Aires under the rubric of a sinister and mocking fate, and thrusts them forward into the dizzying realm of memory, doom and cyclical time. Written in 1954, The Dream of Heroes stands as a predecessor of and model for a whole school of European and American novels that followed but never quite matched it.

Would recommend this sunblock!
Size: 5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Loved this sunblock for my stay abroad in the Caribbean. Left no white cast, and barely had any sunblock smell. Felt like a lotion if anything, and best of all, I didn't get burned! Would recommend.

It works
Size: 1.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I invested in this for its travel size and my needs for a product that would protect my skin and not make it feel super oily. This delivers!!! I used it for a week in Florida with UV up to 11 on some days and didn't face a single issue, even after a Disney day. I was almost in disbelief at how lightweight this product is for it to work properly, but the protection strength is fabulous. I don't burn in the sun, but if I do, its typically along my face where the bridge of my nose is or my upper cheeks. This product basically said, "not today, sun." Bonus, it didnt burn or sting my eyes all day in Disney parks heat, and I didn't need to reapply even though I brought it just in case. Maybe it was the product or the Disney magic, but my skin also didn't look oily or shiny at all in my pictures with the product offering a nice matte finish.

seriously matte-ifying
Size: 1.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Don’t judge but back in the day I used to use Avon’s “face perfector” because it REALLY cut down on the shininess of face oil and it also had SPF. It made your face look matte without any other makeup. And I am pleased that this gel is similar. No face grease. It’s not even really a gel—if instantly feels powdery (somehow?) in your hand, thus it’s nongreasy. It leaves your face shine free and protected.
