A gripping story of private and public betrayals, and family tensions that span an entire society. When journalist Gabriel Santoro publishes his first book about the life of a German woman in Colombia, he does not expect his own father to feel betrayed. As Santoro investigates his father's past, he uncovers hidden secrets from the 1940s and how the Second World War deeply affected those living on this side of the ocean. This novel, written by acclaimed author Juan Gabriel Vásquez, is a fascinating study of how the past can invade the present. With a perfect narrative structure and elegant prose, the work explores themes of historical memory and betrayal, establishing itself as one of the most outstanding pieces of contemporary Colombian literature.
