Description
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.
