With a background of self-critical humor and a brilliant use of narrative rhythm and literary portraiture, the Argentine José Emilio Burucúa tells crudely but without pathos the hectic life of his ancestors, Catalan and Basque emigrants, among whom are a charismatic piano teacher, a pioneer of Latin American medicine, a mother obsessed with Peronism, and a military man persecuted by his fellow coup leaders.
