Puede el amor de un padre perdonarlo todo? Una extraordinaria novela sobre la extrema derecha.

Premio Stanislas al mejor debut del año

Premio Fémina de los Estudiantes

Premio Georges Brassens

El hombre que narra esta historia perdió a su mujer y ha criado a sus dos hijos lo mejor que ha podido. Son dos chavales buenos y educados que quieren a su padre tanto como él a ellos, aunque no lo expresen a menudo. Comparten la afición por el futbol, los recuerdos sobre su madre y el orgullo humilde de clase trabajadora. Hasta que de repente el mayor habla cada vez menos, se aleja de su padre y empieza a codearse con jóvenes de extrema derecha.

Con la sensibilidad frágil y profundamente humana de quién no tiene herramientas para expresar cómo se siente, asistimos al relato de un amor imperfecto entre un hijo y un padre que no sabe cómo evitar que su chico se llene de odio. Por qué alguien con la vida por estrenar puede contener tanta furia? El amor de un padre puede perdonarlo todo?

Esta historia inolvidable se hace las preguntas adecuadas, las que más duelen y las que escapan a una respuesta fácil. Seleccionada como el mejor libro del año por los estudiantes franceses, resuena con fuerza en un mundo estupefacto ante el auge del odio y la incomprensión.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Can a father's love forgive everything? This is an extraordinary novel about the extreme right.

Stanislas Prize for best debut novel of the year, Femina des Lycéens Award, George Brassens Award.

The man who tells this story lost his wife and raised his two sons as best he could. They are two good and well-educated kids who love their father as much as he loves them, even if none of them says it often. They share their passion for soccer, the memory of their mother, and the humble pride of the working class. Until all of a sudden, the eldest son speaks less and less, distances himself from his father, and starts mingling with young men from the extreme right.

With the fragile and profoundly humane sensibility of a man lacking the necessary tools to express how he feels, we witness the tale of an imperfect love between a son and a father who doesn't know how to keep his boy from being overpowered by hatred. Why would someone so new to life have so much pent-up fury? Can a father's love forgive anything?

This unforgettable story asks the right questions, the ones that hurt the most, the ones that elude an easy answer. Chosen as the best book of the year by French students, the novel resonates strongly in a world dumbfounded by the rise of hatred and misunderstanding.
