About the Book

Un repaso a la historia política francesa de los últimos años.

Otra novela dura, crítica y demoledora de Édouard Louis.

Consolidado como el nuevo enfant terrible de las letras francesas gracias al impacto de obras tan singulares como Para acabar con Eddy Bellegueule e Historia de la violencia, dos libros de tintes marcadamente autobiográficos que anticipaban la irrupción de la ultraderecha en Francia y sus nefastas consecuencias, Édouard Louis vuelve a la carga con un j'accuse tan breve como demoledor acerca de las desigualdades sociales del país, que es, a la vez y sobre todo, un ejercicio de reconciliación muy emotivo con su padre moribundo.

Grito airado contra el abandono y el desprecio de los políticos hacia las clases trabajadoras más desfavorecidas, este libro combina retazos íntimos de una tormentosa relación paternofilial fracturada por la vergüenza, la pobreza y la homofobia, con mordaces y específicas denuncias de los salvajes recortes impulsados por los sucesivos gobiernos de Chirac, Sarkozy, Hollande y Macron, a los que el autor acusa, como mínimo, de homicidio complaciente.

Éxito fulminante de ventas y de crítica, llevado a los escenarios con enorme repercusión, traducido a numerosos idiomas y rodeado de una gran expectación mediática por su carga de profundidad contra los poderes públicos, este lacerante testimonio personal se ha convertido en un texto de referencia para quienes, como los «chalecos amarillos», no quieren pertenecer a esa categoría de seres humanos a los que, como al padre de Louis, «la política tiene reservada una muerte prematura».

DESCRIPTION IN ENGLISH

Who Killed My Father is the story of a tough guy - the story of the little boy I never was. The story of my father.

In Who Killed My Father, Édouard Louis explores key moments in his father's life, and the tenderness and disconnects in their relationship.

Told with the fire of a writer determined on social justice, and with the compassion of a loving son, the book urgently and brilliantly engages with issues surrounding masculinity, class, homophobia, shame and social poverty.

It unflinchingly takes aim at systems that disadvantage those they seek to exclude - those who have their expectations, hopes and passions crushed by a society which gives them little thought.
About the Author: Édouard Louis (Hallencourt, Somme, 1992) estudió Historia en la Universidad de Picardía y Sociología en la Escuela Normal Superior de París. Tras coordinar el libro de ensayos Pierre Bourdieu. L#insoumission en héritage (PUF, 2013), irrumpió en el panorama literario francés con Para acabar con Eddy Bellegueule (Salamandra, 2014), un acercamiento a la Francia de Marine Le Pen mucho antes de que ésta triunfara en las elecciones regionales. Historia de la violencia, escrito con anterioridad a la ola de atentados que sufrió Francia en 2016, nos ayuda a entender la fractura que vive este país en lo que respecta a la emigración, el racismo, la homofobia y la pobreza. Los derechos de traducción se han vendido a veinte idiomas y en breve se empezará a rodar una película.
