Reading Argentina

Overview

I want to challenge myself - and others - to read more Argentinian literature. This can be novels, short stories, graphic novels, poetry, non-fiction, audiobooks etc. The book should be either set in Argentina, be about Argentina or by an Argentinian author. 
There is no time limit.
