Michel Nieva (born 1988) is an Argentine writer. He was born in Buenos Aires. He has written several books, among them the poetry collection Papelera de reciclaje, novels such as ¿Sueñan los gauchoides con ñandúes eléctricos? and Ascenso y apogeo del imperio argentino, and essays compiled in the volume Tecnología y barbarie. His prose work often deals with science fiction, speculative genres, and the Argentine historical and literary tradition, a blend dubbed gaucho-punk.[1] He is also a teacher and translator.
In 2021, Nieva was named by Granta magazine as one of the best young writers in the Spanish language.[2] [3] His short story Dengue boy, published on that magazine, won the O. Henry Award in 2022; the following year, it was further developed into the novel La infancia del mundo.[4][1]
