Unlock the more straightforward side of The Tunnel with this concise and insightful summary and analysis!

This engaging summary presents an analysis of The Tunnel by Ernesto Sábato, which is widely recognised as one of the greatest Latin American novels of the 20th century. Its protagonist and narrator, Juan Pablo Castel, is tormented by loneliness, isolation and obsessive jealousy, and struggles to form meaningful relationships with the people around him. His misanthropy and solitude mark him out as a classic antihero, and the novel raises profound questions about human relationships and the failures of communication that they inevitably entail. As well as his novels The Tunnel, On Heroes and Tombs and The Angel of Darkness, Sábato was also known for his thoughtful, perceptive essays and staunch opposition to the military junta that ruled his native Argentina between 1976 and 1983.
