逃出柏林 英文原版 The Tunnel Ernesto Sabato
Framed as the confession of a tormented outcast who has murdered the only woman capable of understanding him, Ernesto Sabato's "The Tunnel" has been acclaimed as a masterpiece by writers such as Albert Camus and Graham Greene. This "Penguin Classics" edition is translated by Margaret Sayers Peden with an introduction by Colm Toibin. Infamous for the murder of Maria Iribarne, the artist Juan Pablo Castel is now writing a detailed account of his relationship with the victim from his prison cell: obsessed from the first moment he saw her examining one of his paintings, Castel had become fixated on her over the next months and fantasized over how they might meet again. When he happened upon her one day, a relationship was formed which swiftly convinced him of their mutual love. But Castel's growing paranoia would lead him to destroy the one thing he truly cared about...Ernesto Sabato (1911-2011) was born in Rojas, a small town in Buenos Aires Province. He read physics at the Universidad Nacional de La Plata, attended the Sorbonne in Paris, and worked at the Curie Institute. After World War II, he lost faith in science and began writing fiction. If you enjoyed "The Tunnel", you might like Albert Camus' "The Outsider", also available in "Penguin Modern Classics". "Sabato captures the intensity of passions run into uncharted passages where love promises not tranquillity, but danger". ("Los Angeles Times"). "An existentialist classic...Retains a chilling, memorable power". ("The New York Times Book Review").
