Un fill

A son

Alejandro Palomas

"A surprisingly emotional and affecting novel that became one of the great revelations of recent years. "

A Son begins with the question “what do you want to be when you grow up?” and Guillem’s surprising answer: Mary Poppins. A psychologist begins to investigate what lies behind his response. The author presents the events from the alternating perspectives of several protagonists in order to create the complex puzzle of Guillem’s family universe. Most noteworthy is how he metes out information, turns situations upside down and deals with feelings that really touch a chord with readers.
