Griffin Alexander | 23 comments Argentinian novelist/writer/critic. I found him through Anti-Story: An Anthology of Experimental Fiction. He is best known (as can be noted for his contribution to the above anthology) for his microcuentos, or microstories. There seem to be two collections in english: Other Side of the Mirror, and Woven on the Loom of Time: Stories by Enrique Anderson-Imbert. Also in english is Spanish American Literature: A History.

Here is an example of his work:

Taboo

His guardian angel whispered to Fabian, behind his shoulder:
"Careful, Fabian! It is decreed that you will die the minute you
pronounce the word doyen.”
"Doyen?" asks Fabian, intrigued.
And he dies.
