Publisher's Synopsis
"The Tunnel" is the confession of Juan Pablo Castel, a painter and convicted murderer, who tells how his tormented love for Maria Irebarne compelled him to stab her to death. With the relentless logic of obsession, he seals himself within his paranoia and is driven deeper into his "tunnel" with no light, no end, only a descent into hellish isolation.;This book is the first of a trilogy and the feature film of "The Tunnel" will be premiered in 1988 in America (spring) and Europe (autumn). Ernesto Sabato was born in Argentina and in 1985 won the Miguel de Cervantes Prize (equivalent to the Nobel Prize for literature in Hispanic languages).
