Antonio di Benedetto wrote five novels, the most famous being the existential masterpiece Zama
(1956). El Silenciero (The Silencer, 1964) is noteworthy for expressing his 「intense abhorrence of noise」.
The Silentiary, along with
Zama and
The Suicides, is one of the three thematically linked novels by Di Benedetto that have come to be known as the Trilogy of Expectation, after the dedication “To the victims of expectation” in
Zama. Together they constitute, in Juan José Saer’s words, “one of the culminating moments of twentieth-century narrative fiction in Spanish.”
