"Camilo is a story of children and parents, of families and absences; a journey through family history that is also the history and political tragedy of a country. With the subtlety and precision of someone who knows how to investigate the ways of being rooted, Alejandro Zambra writes a moving, profound and disturbing work, portraying the search for a father and the different ways of becoming a son. Accompanied by the illustrations of Mujer Gallina, this edition confirms the Chilean author as one of the fundamental voices of Latin American literature."-- Back cover.
