imissyou's review against another edition
5.0
Tras cuatro días de intentar descifrar a el protagonista, he llegado a la conclusión que desde la primera página es un loco obsesivo que piensa todo en exceso. Una mancha en la pared? ALGUIEN LA HIZO TODO ES SU CULPA!
Por otro lado, María me cae mal, su esposo me cae bien, el resto meh.
Es un gran libro eso si. Es intrigante y aunque desde el principio sabes que Juan Pablo asesino a María, quieres seguir mirando entre la retorcida mente del pintor, pero más importante, ver como asesina al amor de su vida.

Historia que te hace cuestionar la verdad y el sentido de lo que está ocurriendo. Impone cuestionamientos difíciles de ignorar.
Es la primer narrativa de Sábato que leo, y la verdad quedé fascinada. Su escritura es tan real que me siento identificada con muchas de sus palabras. Sin duda quiero indagar más en sus obras.

4.5
Published in 1948, Sábato's most known work is a unique and intense story about obsession, paranoia and desperate loneliness, narrated by a very unstable individual. The narrator’s flaws and impulses are presented in an extremely logical style; excessively detailed and terse prose. It's a very detailed exposition of his madness; a very controlled style of writing to represent the uncontrollable emotions that the narrator regards as rational.
Brilliant novel; breathtaking prose and excellent character study. Also surprisingly funny—unintentionally funny, maybe. I loved it.
It's a very brief novel; a quick and enjoyable read.
The meaning behind the title absolutely floored me.
