The Silentiary
Suicides
A reporter embarks on an investigation of a string of unconnected suicides--which then leads into an exploration of the phenomenon of suicide itself--in this elegant existential novel, the third and final volume of Antonio Di Benedetto's Trilogy of Expectation. A reporter's boss assigns him to cover three unconnected suicides. The news agency wants to syndicate the story to color magazines, 'For the blood, so the red is visible.' All he's given to go on are photos of the faces of the dead. As he starts to investigate, other suicides happen. An archivist colleague, a woman, supplies factoids from history, anthropology, biology, and philosophy: suicide by men, women, families, animals; thoughts on suicide from Diogenes, the Tosafists, Hume, Schopenhauer, Durkheim, Mead. A photographer assigned to work with him--also a woman--snaps pictures of the bodies and the family members of the dead, who speak of subterfuge, hypochondria, madness, a secret society, a body exhumed to be mutilated.

There, eaten up by pride, lust, petty grudges, and paranoid fantasies, he does as little as he possibly can while plotting his eventual transfer to Buenos Aires, where everything about his hopeless existence will, he is confident, be miraculously transformed and made good. Don Diego's slow, nightmarish slide into the abyss is not just a tale of one man's perdition but an exploration of existential, and very American, loneliness. Zama, with its stark dreamlike prose and spare imagery, is at
