The present paper proposes an analysis of historiographical metafiction, developed in the postmodern theory of Linda Hutcheon (1991), in the short stories "A letter from Bancroft" by the Brazilian writer Milton Hatoum, and "El libro perdido de Borges" by the Argentine author Mempo Giardinelli. Historiographical metafiction does not only talk about fiction or history, but offers the reader a new art form, so the analysis also relies on the contributions of Bernardo (2010), Waugh (1984), Miranda (2010), and Perrone-Moisés (2016).
