Description
Marco Denevi - Rosaura at 10 O'Clock
Published in 1955, Rosaura at Ten O'Clock is the debut novel by Marco Denevi, a work that brought the author instant acclaim and set the stage for his literary career. While it shares some characteristics with the detective genre, the novel stands out for its unique and innovative storytelling. Unlike traditional mysteries featuring a brilliant detective unraveling the truth, this novel employs a fresh approach. The investigator remains a passive presence, merely listening to testimonies from witnesses and the suspect. The narrative unfolds through their conflicting perspectives, leaving it to the reader to piece together the puzzle. By comparing these differing accounts—some misleading, others distorted—the reader reconstructs the events and discovers the truth, revealed only in the final words of the last witness. With its elements of tragicomedy and masterful narrative structure, Rosaura at Ten O'Clock is a groundbreaking work that challenges conventions and immerses readers in a thrilling intellectual exercise. A must-read for fans of mystery, psychological drama, and unconventional storytelling.
