The Invention of Morel
by Adolfo Bioy Casares
pub New York Review Book Classics
A strange but excellent novel of a mysterious island with cinematic connections. The atmosphere of this book was used in the long and intriguing (and frustrating!) french film Last Year in Marienbad by Alain Resnais.
Nobody knows how to tell this story, in the first or second person singular or in the third person plural...
Blow Up and other stories
by Julio Cortazar
paperback
A series of tales of the unexpected, often involving parallel worlds, and including the short story Blow Up about the curious relationship between a man and his camera. This story was later made into the film Blow Up by Michangelo Antonioni, a swinging London mystery, well worth checking out.
