El banquete de Severo Arcángelo (lit. 'The Banquet of Severo Arcángelo') is a 1965 novel by the Argentine writer Leopoldo Marechal. It revolves around a mysterious banquet at an estate in San Isidro and the labyrinthine investigation of its purpose. It was Marechal's second novel, published 17 years after his first, Adam Buenosayres.[1][2][3]
The Argentine rock band Los Abuelos de la Nada (lit. 'The Grandparents of Nothingness') took its name from a passage in the novel.[4]
