First, the novel tells the story of three postal planes flying from Patagonia, Chile and Paraguay to Buenos Aires one night, and one of them crashed due to a hurricane. The story follows two seemingly parallel but closely related clues. Fabian, the pilot, struggled in the thunderous night sky, while Riviere, the flight manager, was uneasy in the brightly lit office. Quietly moving, one dark and one bright, light and shadow pictures with great contrast appear alternately, which are compact, rhythmic and thrilling. Mountain desert, storm and thunderstorm, these unpredictable and mysterious natural phenomena, are vivid in the author's pen; And emotional and figurative words have a strong appeal. No matter the content or narrative technique, Night Flight is a masterpiece of novella.
