About the work
Toda la culpa es de Cabral (All the Blame Is on Cabral) is a literary short story collection that weaves philosophical inquiry, magical realism, and intimate autobiography. Written by an Argentine author based in Bordeaux, France, the work navigates themes of memory, identity, the nature of the soul, and the metaphysical forces that shape human existence.
The collection spans a gaucho's tragic cycle of love and violence on the infinite Pampa; a man condemned to omniscience by an ancient book; two strangers whose paths are quietly guided by fate; and a desert journey beneath the sands where the narrator encounters a childhood spirit guide who reveals the hidden architecture of the cosmos. Anchored in the tradition of Borges and Cortázar, infused with Argentine landscapes and Mediterranean nostalgia, each story operates on multiple registers — the intimate and the universal, the real and the mythical.
The collection culminates in a deeply personal tribute to a mentor figure, whose philosophical influence the author credits as the source of all his curiosity, growth, and creative voice.
