Ernesto Sabato's memoirs, 'Antes del fin', are a unique book that constitutes his spiritual testament. In it, Sabato narrates the story of a young man born in the Argentine pampa, who embarks on a successful career in the scientific world, even working at the Curie Center in Paris. However, after his contact with the surrealists, he decides to abandon science for literature and art. In addition, the book tells the story of a rebellious man, close to anarchism and the revolutionary left, who denounces the masks of Soviet totalitarianism and presides over the commission that investigates the horror of the disappeared in Argentina.
Ernesto Sabato was an Argentine novelist, essayist, painter, and physicist. According to the BBC he "won some of the most prestigious prizes in Hispanic literature" and "became very influential in the literary world throughout Latin America". Upon his death El País dubbed him the "last classic writer in Argentine literature".
