«El adversario» is the nonfiction novel by Emmanuel Carrère, published by Editorial Anagrama in paperback (176 pages, in Spanish).
On 9 January 1993 Jean-Claude Romand killed his wife, his children and his parents and attempted suicide. He was not a doctor: he had maintained a fictitious life since the age of eighteen and, on the verge of being discovered, eliminated those he could not have borne to face. Carrère reconstructs the real case, delving into the lie, the solitude and the horror.
The volume belongs to Anagrama's Compactos collection (number 613) and includes Jaime Zulaika's translation of the French original «L'adversaire». The work was originally published in 2000.
It will appeal to readers of true crime and narrative nonfiction, as well as those already familiar with Emmanuel Carrère's work.
Emmanuel Carrère is a French author, screenwriter and film director.
