«Las mentiras de la noche» is the novel by Gesualdo Bufalino, published by Editorial Anagrama in paperback (192 pages, in Spanish).
Four men condemned for conspiring against the king await execution in a Bourbon fortress. During the night, each tells a story to justify his life; they are offered salvation if someone reveals the ringleader, and the wait turns into a game of deception that culminates in an unexpected twist.
The novel belongs to Anagrama's Compactos collection (number 165). The original Italian title is «Le menzogne della notte», and it won the Strega Prize in 1988.
A work for readers of literary and Italian fiction who value oppressive atmospheres and mirror games about truth.
