Synopsis "Mamá (in Spanish)"

Reedición de uno de los libros más celebrados de Jorge Fernández Díaz, que cuenta de manera conmovedora la historia de su propia madre, quien a los quince años fue enviada desde España a la Argentina de Perón para escapar de la miseria. En esa tierra hostil ella construye su destino contra todos los obstáculos, y con el paso de los años, luego de tomar conciencia de sus más profundos cambios, un pedido por parte de sus hijos y nietos vuelve a circular esta historia.

Jorge Fernández Díaz is a writer and journalist. For thirty-five years, he alternated roles as a police reporter, investigative journalist, political analyst, editor-in-chief of newspapers, and director of magazines. He is currently one of the main political columnists for the newspaper La Nación. He published, among other books, El dilema de los próceres, Mamá, Fernández, Corazones desatados, La segunda vida de las flores, La logia de Cádiz (Planeta, 2008), La hermandad del honor (Planeta, 2010), Alguien quiere ver muerto a Emilio Malbrán, and Las mujeres más solas del mundo. His latest novel El puñal (Planeta, 2014) has been on the bestseller list for over a year, was published in Spain and Latin America, and will soon be filmed by director Marcelo Piñeyro. Arturo Pérez-Reverte said of this work: “Hard, black, violent, disenchanted, and exciting novel. So Argentine that it shakes.” Fernández Díaz received the Medalla de la Hispanidad, awarded by the Spanish government and the Spanish community in Argentina; the Konex de Platino as the best editor of the decade; the Atlántida award with which the publishers of Catalonia celebrated his work in favor of books, and the Bicentennial Medal for his journalistic and literary work. In 2012, he was decorated by the king of Spain with the Cross of the Order of Isabel la Católica, and in 2017 he entered the Argentine Academy of Letters, where he occupies the Juan Bautista Alberdi chair.
