A Russian Doll and Other Stories is the ninth collection of short
fiction by one of this century's premier Argentinian writers who,
with his fellow countrymen Julio Cortazar and Jorge Luis Borges,
helped change the world's perception of Latin American literature.
Bioy Casares's narratives are elegant and urbane, his style precise
and streamlined, as he paces his characters through seriocomic
traps of fate ensnared by love, impelled by lust, ambition, or
plain greed, even metamorphosed by pharmaceuticals. These are not
stories in a psychological mode but like the image of the Russian
doll of the title piece are carefully wrought congeries of
intractable selves within selves."
