Wolfgang and His Father’s Secret

Laia Aguilar

"The Wolfgang books present the complicated relationship between a highly gifted child and his surroundings. Wolfgang is an intelligent character who struggles to understand his emotions, yet has captured the hearts of thousands of readers."

Recent years have seen a spate of characters whose disability or difference have caused that readers see the world from a special perspective. M. Haddon’s The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time and R.J. Palacio’s Wonder have won our hearts and now it’s Wolfgang’s turn, a highly gifted boy who loves music and is unduly perfectionist. He sits on the sidelines observing life rationally and has difficulties relating to others and making friends. In the first bestselling book, which was voted by young readers as the winner of the Atrapallibres Prize, Wolfgang has to face his mother’s death. In the second instalment, which has been just as popular among readers and critics as the first one, Wolfgang meets his father for the first time.
