AbstractHistoryArchive Description

The story makes reference to Carlos Gardel, the famous singer and composer of tangos who lived most of his life in Argentina. Carlos Romualdo Garmendia, the protagonist of 'Como por arte de magia', works in a video rental shop in Fairfield owned by his parents. He comes to believe that, perhaps through reincarnation, a bond exists between him and Carlos Gardel.
