Los astronautas

"We all know from childhood which people make up our family and what are the ties that bind us to each of them, all except the protagonist of this novel, who was never told that she too had had a family at some point in her life. What happened in those years for all the traces of that time to disappear? The Astronauts narrates the deciphering of that ecosystem lost in time: a photograph found by chance, in which she appears as a child with her parents, illuminates the reality of her family after a thirty-five year delay. But it illuminates, above all, the shortcomings and silences on which she was forced to shape her identity. However, a story never tells the truth, but a truth..." - Translation provided by NLS.
