CURIOSITIES

  • The house in the novel is inspired by a royal house located in the town of Montmany (Vallès Oriental), a farmhouse in the middle of the forest surrounded by several scrapped cars, a tractor and a caravan.
  • The starting point of the novel starts from a real event: a friend and I got lost in the car while we were looking for the Montmany castle and we ended up finding a farmhouse and a hermitage at the end of a narrow road.
  • Despite the dilapidated state of the Montmany farmhouse, it is inhabited by a man who, according to close neighbors, is reserved and lonely.

    Hola Arturo, me he leído El Chatarrero y me ha gustado mucho, creo que hay un error. En la página 91 en la línea 30, Iván apuñala una almohada con unas tijeras.
    En la página 93 en la primera línea, Patri dice que cuando enciende la luz se encuentra a Iván apuñalando una almohada con unas tijeras. En la página 97 en la línea 17, Patri le dice a Iván que el niño no era real, que él estaba clavándole un cúter a una almohada. Me gustaría saber si es un error o hay una explicación.

      ¡Muchas gracias!
