Nombres De Mi Padre, Los

This is an intimate and thoughtful novel in which the character, Camilo, travels to New York in search of answers about Miguel Carnero, an enigmatic man who could be his real father. While his mother lies dying in Mexico, Camilo embarks on a personal investigation that blends memories, archives, and wounds from the past, and confronts him with family secrets and echoes of a generation marked by utopia and repression. The figure of Miguel--idealist, architect, and obsessive--becomes the axis of a plot where architecture is revealed as a metaphor for social and political control. With lucid and emotional prose, Saldaña París constructs a story about identity, memory, and the need to reconstruct the past not to repeat it, but to understand it and move forward.
