Gabriel Casaccia Writer
Gabriel Casaccia Bibolini (April 20, 1907 – November 24, 1980) was a Paraguayan novelist. He is widely considered by critics to be the founder of modern literature in Paraguay. Augusto Roa Bastos, Paraguay's most famous novelist says, “Gabriel Casaccia is the founder of modern Paraguayan narrative, which gives, in good measure, a fundamental character to all of his work and, to its author, the unusual merit of having launched the genre in a country which was fictionally unknown.”
