His most known novel is La invención de Morel[?]. It's the story about a man who, evading justice, escapes to an island which was said to be infected with a mysterious fatal disease. While struggling to comprehend why everything seemed to repeat, he realized that all the people he saw there were actually recordings made with a special machine invented by Morel which was able to record not only three dimensional images, but also the voices and the smell making it indistinguishable to reality - the original Holodeck? The story mixes realism, fantasy, science fiction and terror.
He won several awards, including the Premio Miguel de Cervantes[?] in 1991 in Alcalá de Henares.
