«El estrangulador» is the crime novel by Manuel Vázquez Montalbán, published by Círculo de Lectores in paperback (223 pages, in Spanish).
An inmate of a prison psychiatric hospital believes he is the Boston Strangler, Albert DeSalvo. His monologue, tinged with delirium, is full of false leads and half-truths; parody and allegory intertwine as identity, madness and memory lead the reader to doubt between reality and fiction.
Winner of the Premio de la Crítica de Narrativa Castellana in 1994; the work was originally published that year and this edition is from 1995.
A narrative that will appeal to readers of crime fiction and stories with unreliable narrators.
Manuel Vázquez Montalbán was a prolific Spanish writer from Barcelona: journalist, novelist, poet, essayist, anthologue, prologist, humorist, critic and political prisoner as well as a gastronome and an FC Barcelona supporter.
