Synopsis "Los Parientes Pobres (in Spanish)"

La nueva novela de Rafael Gumucio, «uno de los más valientes, lúcidos y talentosos rebeldes que sobreviven en el Chile de hoy (Letras Libres). Los parientes pobres es una divertida radiografía de las clases acomodadas latinoamericanas. Once hermanos intercambian mensajes acerca de la situación de su padre, que en la ancianidad establece vínculos escandalosos y ostenta conductas que no solo ponen a prueba el afecto de sus numerosos hijos, sino que también activan los recuerdos y obstinaciones de cada cual, dando paso a la manifestación -enfática, divertida, exasperante- de las diferencias que tienen, las deudas y los rencores que se guardan. Cruzando voces y cambiando de perspectiva con destreza, Rafael Gumucio ofrece con Los parientes pobres una novela donde el fresco que viene construyendo hace tres décadas sobre los modos chilenos de establecer relaciones encuentra uno de sus puntos más altos. La historia de un patriarca caído que es también el relato de generaciones desencontradas, una comedia que es también un drama, una competencia de voces que se confunden y se distancian, que se buscan y se burlan hasta encontrarse o alejarse para siempre. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION The new novel by Rafael Gumucio, "one of the most courageous, lucid and talented rebels remaining in Chile today" (Letras Libres). The Poor Relatives is an entertaining examination of Latin America's well-heeled social classes. Eleven siblings exchange text messages about their father, who, in his old age, has made scandalous acquaintances and engages in behaviors that try the patience of his many children, stirring up long-buried memories and resentments and leading each to express their differences and grudges in emphatic, funny and exasperating ways. Skillfully switching voices and perspectives, Rafael Gumucio adds the masterstroke to the portrait of Chilean mores he's been crafting for the last three decades. The story of a declining patriarch, The Poor Relatives is also a tale of estranged generations and a comedy drama with competing voices that overlap, retreat and poke fun at each other until finding harmony or rejection.
