  1. 1. The Obscene Bird Of Night by José Donoso

    This novel is a labyrinthine exploration of identity, madness, and the nature of reality, told through the fragmented narrative of a reclusive man who has lived his life in seclusion on a decrepit estate. As the protagonist delves into his past, he recounts his experiences among the deformed and the destitute, the aristocracy and the servants, while grappling with his own fears and illusions. The narrative weaves a tapestry of grotesque imagery, mythological allusions, and a collapsing social order, challenging the reader to distinguish between truth and fabrication in a world where the boundaries of sanity are blurred.
