My father's names

"Camilo's mother is dying in Mexico. His father - the man who raised him - died years ago of a sudden heart attack. Camilo has arrived in New York in search of answers: Who was Miguel Carnero? Could he have been his biological father? Now that the truth is coming to light, doubts pile up and time is running out. Ángela Carnero, Miguel's daughter, is the only person who can help Camilo, but he no longer has any relationship with her. His is an intimate, existential, almost detective-like investigation that weaves together family histories and political wounds. Through old archives, intersecting testimonies, and his own blurred memories, Camilo begins to draw an emotional cartography that will force him to reconsider everything: his childhood, his relationships with those closest to him, and ultimately his own identity. His inquiries take him back to the 1970s, to a generation of parents who wanted to change the world. And at the center of it all stands Miguel Carnero, a distant yet magnetic figure who fascinated everyone"-- Provided by publisher.
