Manuel Mujica Lainez[1] (11 September 1910 – 21 April 1984) was an Argentine novelist, essayist and art critic.
He is mainly known for his cycle of historical novels called "La saga porteña" (The Buenos Aires Saga), consisting of Los ídolos (1953), La casa (1954), Los viajeros (1955) and Invitados en El Paraíso (1957); as well as his cycle of historical fantasy novels consisting of Bomarzo (1962), El unicornio (1965) and El laberinto (1974). He is also known for his first two short story collections Aquí vivieron (1949) and Misteriosa Buenos Aires (1950).
^In fact, the writer himself spelled his surnames without accents, as all his books published during his lifetime show.
