«Juntacadáveres» is a novel by Juan Carlos Onetti, published by Mondadori in paperback (187 pages, in Spanish).
The action takes place in Santa María, an invented city that functions as a metaphor for the universe. Larsen, a recurring character in Onetti's narrative, tries to settle there to open a brothel; the local powers-that-be oppose his project. The novel reflects decadence, corruption and hopelessness through an oppressive atmosphere and introspective narration.
The novel was originally published in 1964; this edition dates from 1991 and belongs to the Narrativa Mondadori collection. Onetti received the Cervantes Prize in 1980.
For readers of Latin American literature and twentieth-century classics.
