«La razón del mal» is the novel by Rafael Argullol, published by Destino in paperback (271 pages, in Spanish).
In a Western city, an event occurs that is kept secret. Those who witness it each seek their own explanation, and what seemed a curiosity becomes a threat that transforms citizens' convictions. Argullol composes an allegory about social decay, denunciation, fear, and superstition.
Winner of the Premio Nadal in 1993, it belongs to Destino's Áncora y Delfín Collection (number 704).
For readers of contemporary Spanish fiction seeking an allegorical, award-winning novel.
