The Pit (Spanish: El pozo) is the debut novel by Uruguayan author Juan Carlos Onetti.
Published in 1939, the novel is written in form of a diary. Eladio Linacero, the main character, shows his scepticism for life in general.[1]
Some literary critics trace the origins of the Latin American Boom to this novel and others, such as Ernesto Sábato's El Túnel.
