"Hablar solos" centers around the lives of several characters: Lito has just turned ten and dreams of trucks. Mario is sick and is plagued by memories. Before it's too late, both begin a decisive journey in which they will share much more than time and space. Harassed by the idea of loss, Elena plunges into a cathartic adventure capable of defying her moral boundaries. Addicted to reading, she can't stop bumping into her own life in books, or vice versa. Alternating between tenderness and crudeness, this novel explores everything from the innocence of childhood to perversion, and from the connectedness of family to mourning. Written by Argentine poet, translator, columnist, blogger and novelist Andrés Neuman, who is also the author of “El viajero del siglo”, “Década: Poesía, 1997-2007” and “El fin de la lectura”.
