In this book of short stories, Alejandro Zambra traces the mundane existence of men who fall back on an outdated idea of masculinity, describing the transition of peripatetic beings who stake their last chips on love. The relentless search for the father, the obsolescence of objects and feelings that seemed eternal, the disenchantment of the youth of the Spanish transition to democracy, mendacity as the only means of attachment, and the legitimacy of pain are some of the subjects that are dealt with in this book.
