The concept of non-fiction is currently relevant, recent works show the possibilities of the genre, for this reason it has become pertinent to separate it from terms such as essay, biography, autobiography, autofiction, with which it maintains various similarities, but, most interestingly, crucial differences. For this reason, we recommend reading the article Dissertation on the term non-fiction.
The dramaturgy of power in Pig War Diary, by Amparo Reyes Velázquez, PhD in Hispano-American Literature from the Complutense University of Madrid, is a contemporary study of this important work by Bioy Casares, focused on the sociopolitical context of the dictatorship of Edelmiro Julián Farrell, political situation that underlies the novel.
