书籍简介

冈萨罗是一个沮丧的未来诗人，在这个充满诗人的城市里；诗人潜伏在每个书店里，支撑着每个酒吧，随时准备辩论泰利耶和米兰的优点（但从不讨论聂鲁达——这太不公平了）。然后，在他们令人困惑的分手九年后，冈萨洛与他十几岁的恋人卡拉重逢，令他惊讶的是，卡拉现在是一个年轻儿子文森特的母亲。很快他们就组成了一个幸福的家庭——继家庭，尽管在他们的语言中没有这个词。

随着时间的推移，命运和野心将这对恋人分开，但当谈到爱情和诗歌时，冈萨罗会给他不太像继子的文森特留下什么？桑布以温柔和洞察力记录了构成家庭生活的日常时刻——荒谬的、痛苦的、性感的、甜蜜的、深刻的——在这部大胆而辉煌的新小说中。

Gonzalo is a frustrated would-be poet in a city full of poets; poets lurk in every bookshop, prop up every bar, ready to debate the merits of Teillier and Millan (but never Neruda - beyond the pale). Then, nine years after their bewildering breakup, Gonzalo reunites with his teen sweetheart, Carla, who is now, to his surprise, the mother of a young son, Vicente. Soon they form a happy sort-of family - a stepfamily, though no such word exists in their language.

In time, fate and ambition pull the lovers apart, but when it comes to love and poetry, what will be Gonzalo's legacy to his not-quite-stepson Vicente? Zambra chronicles with tenderness and insight the everyday moments - absurd, painful, sexy, sweet, profound - that constitute family life in this bold and brilliant new novel.
