This essay aims at developing an account on the short-story « El gaucho insufrible », by Roberto Bolaño, focusing on the dialogue between such literary text and the processes of cultural and historical construction relating to the image of the so-called gaucho. The study discusses the disjunctions verified between the factual gaucho – the individual that can be found at the concrete level of existence – and its supposed textual correspondents, whose legitimacy or verisimilitude is founded on the historical narrative, on the literary narrative, and on other means that participate in the processes of fostering traditions and of constituting identity references. In order to analyse the path of « El gaucho insufrible »'s protagonist, who leaves Buenos Aires and settles in a village of the pampas due to a serious socioeconomic and political crisis that takes place in Argentina, this essay adopts the reflections presented by Adolfo Bioy Casares in Memoria sobre las pampas y los gauchos as a starting point.
