'A novelist of immense power ... uncompromising and original' Colm
Toibin 'I can feel the passage of time, as though it were coursing
through my veins, along with my blood...' One June day in 1955
Alejandra, last of a noble yet decaying Argentinian dynasty, shoots
her father, locks herself up with his body, and sets fire to them
both. What caused this act of insanity? Does the answer lie with
Martin, her troubled lover, Bruno, the writer who worshipped her
mother, or with her father Fernando himself, demonic creator of the
strange 'Report on the Blind'? Their lives entwine in Ernesto
Sabato's dark epic of passion, philosophy and paranoia in Buenos
Aires. 'Bewitched, baroque, monumental' Newsweek
