«La cárcel» is the novel by Colombian writer Jesús Zárate, published by Editorial Planeta in paperback (294 pages, in Spanish).
In a Colombian prison, Antón Castán keeps a diary of his confinement: he records the passing of days and the voices of his cellmates, such as Mr. Alba, Braulio and David. Their conversations about culture, religion, economics and philosophy turn imprisonment into a reflection on justice, freedom and innocence.
The novel won the Planeta Prize in 1972. The cover of this edition reproduces the award's emblem.
For readers of twentieth-century Colombian fiction and stories about confinement, justice and freedom.
