Listen to this note:
?It will be enough to say that I am Juan Pablo Castel, the painter who killed María Iribarne; I suppose that the process is in everyone's memory and that no further explanations about me are needed?
This is how the novel "The Tunnel" begins. by the Argentine writer Ernesto Sabato, his first book, and that Camilasbooks recommends us this week.
The work was written in 1948, after the author, a doctor in physics with many studies related to science and mathematics, decided to abandon everything because "he wanted to save himself, he wanted to remain human, and this is one of the most important themes for be able to understand your novel?, Camila tells us.
And Sabato suffers an existential crisis related to the rationality of his work world. And, according to the author, art was the only medium where human beings could let out everything they had inside, both rationally and irrationally, a theme that he develops in "The Tunnel."
This novel starts with a high-impact beginning, as the protagonist Juan Pablo Castel reveals to us that he has committed a crime, he has killed María Iribarne, and with this confession we wonder why Juan Pablo Castel came to kill this woman?
If you want to know more about it, we invite you to listen to the recommendation of Camilasbooks in collaboration with Península 360 Press of ?El Túnel? by Ernesto Sabato.
