About the Book

Finalista del Deutscher Buchpreis

Premio Robert Gernhardt

Premio LiteraTour Nord

«Es difícil no quedarse enganchado a Demonios». -Der Spiegel

«Un fresco familiar de una intensidad extraordinaria». -Süddeutsche Zeitung

«Una lectura que te abre los ojos». -ARD Druckfrisch

Hüseyin Yilmaz muere de un infarto el día que cumple su sueño de regresar a Estambul para jubilarse. Han pasado treinta años desde que este hombre de origen kurdo emigrara a Alemania, en la década de 1970, para trabajar de forma incansable y sacar adelante a su familia, que ahora viaja a Turquía para enterrarle. Cada uno de ellos carga con sus propios demonios y su particular relato: Emine, la esposa, vive abrumada por dolorosos recuerdos y secretos del pasado; Sevda, la hija mayor, ha alcanzado el éxito profesional, pero su vida personal se desmorona; su hermano, Hakan, se esconde tras una máscara y le cuesta afrontar su personalidad; Peri, todavía en la universidad, arrastra sus propios duelos, y Ümit, a sus quince años, no puede expresar libremente su amor por otro chico. Las verdades ocultadas y las heridas del pasado irrumpirán en el presente de esta familia y harán tambalear sus fracturados cimientos.

En esta premiada novela --que ha sido también finalista del Deutscher Buchpreis, el premio literario más importante de las letras alemanas--, y con una gran dosis de potencia narrativa, Fatma Aydemir cuestiona la esencia de esta familia de inmigrantes de primera y segunda generación, y nos muestra los abismos entre unos padres, unos hijos y unos hermanos que solo anhelan sentirse comprendidos.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

After laboring in Germany for thirty years, Hüseyin uses his hard-earned savings to purchase a sunny and spacious flat in Istanbul, envisioning the joys of retirement in his home country with his wife, Emine, by his side. But in a cruel twist of fate, he dies of a heart attack on the day he moves in. As Hüseyin's children and wife travel to Turkey for his funeral, the novel explores their lives and dreams: a teenage son struggling to embrace his sexuality; a college-educated daughter desperate to align conflicting facets of her identity; a first-born son racialized and profiled all his life, forced to perform a role he could not choose for himself; a lonely daughter left behind in rural Turkey who dreams of recapturing her family's love after joining them in Germany as a teenager; and a mother unable to break free from the cycles of violence that have defined her.

In this epic tale, Fatma Aydemir explores the lives of characters who could not be more different from one another--except in their insatiable desires to be understood. Rather than a seamless narrative, the novel circles around suppressed memories, unspoken trauma, and buried pasts. Turning expectations and stereotypes of the immigrant experience on their side, Aydemir shows how we all grapple with power and beauty, the holes in our lives, and the demons that hover just out of sight.
