Overview

Every word you read here stems from delirium and blurred memories, and for this you must forgive the lies, hyperbole, and omissions. The story I offer you does not claim to be true, nor does it seek to justify its sources: it is a devout lie, crumpled by violence and useless pity. Yet I know that the most mendacious stories are sometimes those that best illuminate the facts; and so let me tell you, with all my characteristic dishonesty, the tragedy of Antroponov, a man whose soul was sacrificed on the altar of science, of irremediable weakness, and finally of madness. Let no one ignore, however, that certain details-certain names, certain gestures, certain horrors-are fished out of an abyss of real events, and only through mercy are they transfigured into fable. Let the relatives, descendants, and survivors of the victims know that I have not intended to slander anyone; and that the dead can no longer resent what I am about to confide.
