(The New York Times Book Review), Alejandro Zambra returns with his most substantial work yet: a story of fathers and sons, ambition and failure, and what it means to make a family After a chance encounter at a Santiago nightclub, aspiring poet Gonzalo reunites with his first love, Carla. Though their desire for each other is still intact, much has changed: among other things, Carla now has a six-year-old son, Vicente. Soon the three form a happy sort-of family??a stepfamily, though no such word exists in their language. Eventually, their ambitions pull the lovers in different directions??in Gonzalo??s case, all the way to New York.

When, at eighteen, Vicente meets Pru, an American journalist literally and figuratively lost in Santiago, he encourages her to write about Chilean poets??not the famous, dead kind, your Nerudas or Mistrals or Bolaños, but rather the living, striving, everyday ones. Pru??s research leads her into this eccentric community??another kind of family, dysfunctional but ultimately loving. Will it also lead Vicente and Gonzalo back to each other?
