More about the book

Exploring the themes of artistic creation and reality, the novel follows Bernardo Saguen, a troubled writer grappling with mental illness and moral decline. As he descends into paranoia and schizophrenia, his unreliable narration raises questions about truth and perception. Written during a period of uncertainty for Huidobro, this final prose work reflects his literary, social, and philosophical concerns, intertwining his personal struggles with broader existential inquiries. The narrative culminates in a haunting ambiguity, leaving readers to ponder the nature of reality and sanity.
