Bierce es uno de los escritores más enigmáticos de la literatura en inglés. Sus relatos, insólitos y llenos de humor negro, le encuadran en los seguidores del magisterio de Poe. Luchó en la Guerra de Secesión (1861 - 1865), y muchos años después, en 1913, cruzó la frontera de México para unirse a las tropas de Pancho Villa, y desde entonces se pierde todo rastro de su vida. Este episodio está reflejado en la película "Gringo Viejo" (1985), en la que Gregory Peck da vida a un personaje basado en el real Ambrose Bierce. "El puente sobre el río del Búho" es su relato más famoso, en el que desarrolla una impecable paradoja temporal.
