The story is an example of magic realism. Basically the man who is running from the war party in the jungle is real life while the motorcycle is dream. The story makes it seem the other way around but the author shows some hints such as the fact that he can't reach the water in the hospital because he can't drink in real life.

"The Night Face Up" is a short story by Julio Cortázar that follows the blurred boundaries between dreams and reality. The protagonist finds himself alternating between a hospital where he is being treated after a motorcycle accident and a sacrificial ritual in the Aztec era. As he tries to make sense of his experiences, he becomes uncertain of which reality is truly his.
