Sabato's dark, philosophical novel is woven around a violent crime committed by Alejandra, the daughter of a prominent Argentinian family. Alejandra's act entwines the lives of three men: her father, Fernanda Vidal, a man who believes himself hunted by a secret organisation of the blind, her troubled lover, Martin, and Bruno, a writer who loved her mother. Exploring the tumult of Buenos Aires in the 1950s, it leads its reader into a world of passion, philosophy and paranoia.
