Los Hombres Que No Fui / The Men I Was Never Able to Become - Pablo Simonetti - Bog

The confrontation of a man with his history, his class, his sexuality. Through a series of encounters with people who were part of his past, the narrator of The Men I Wasn't confronts his memory, his decisions and the drifts his life has taken, giving way to the portrait of "a world of beautiful, tyrannical and fruitless forms, of inculcated rules that could become deadly". With an enlightening look, combining melancholy and liberation, Pablo Simonetti writes about the possible lives that we are abandoning with each of our decisions, about belonging and exclusion, against the background of a burning Santiago that will allow the protagonist to leave the past definitely back.
