El fin de los buenos tiempos
This volume collects three nouvelles that offer three different journeys: a family that begins its summer vacation, a modest soccer team in pursuit of promotion, a man who returns hometown after several years of absence.
Three stories also of irrevocable fate, a fate that successively takes the form of an enigmatic disease, a rare curse or a prolonged agony.
Three variations, finally, on the same topic: the relationship between parents and children and their always difficult understanding.
