That Thing With Grandpa

Anna Manso Munné

"An original, relatable way to look at corruption, told in the voice of the accused’s grandson. This intimate perspective heightens the impact on readers."

This novel tackles the subject of a corruption case involving an important public figure. However, instead of treating it journalistically, the author gets inside the skin of the alleged wrongdoer’s grandson. When he discovers his grandfather’s true personality, it’s like the rug has been pulled out from under him. The grandson himself feels like he’s fallen from grace, into the utmost insignificance. This is a novel that stands out for its detailed psychological portrait of the teenaged protagonist.
