«Sobre héroes y tumbas» is the novel by Ernesto Sabato, published by RBA in paperback (505 pages, in Spanish).
Set in the final years of Peronism, the novel interweaves the decline of a family from the old Creole aristocracy with the murky relationship between Martín and Alejandra. It also crosses paths with the tragic defeat of General Lavalle's followers and a sinister plot around an organization of blind people.
Originally published in 1961, it is Sabato's second novel. This 1993 RBA edition belongs to the Biblioteca de Bolsillo collection.
For readers of classic contemporary fiction and 20th-century Argentine literature.
