En Berlín, el carismático pero conflictivo Ivanito se presenta en el escenario con su personalidad de drag queen, mientras se siente acosado por el fantasma de su madre. Pilar Puente, a la deriva en Los Ángeles, es una escultora y madre soltera con problemas financieros. La prima de Ivanito, Irina, se ha convertido en la acaudalada dueña de una empresa de lencería en Moscú, pero aún se siente profundamente sola tras la muerte de sus padres y el distanciamiento de su herencia cubana. Mientras tanto, en La Habana, Celia se prepara para reunirse con su amante perdido, Gustavo, y se pregunta si la edad y las décadas separados habrán alterado el vínculo que los unía. Alejados de sus raíces cubanas, pero sintiendo todavía la ineludible atracción de la isla, Ivanito y su familia intentan descubrir el lugar al que pertenecen, y junto a quién. A lo largo de un año memorable, cada uno lidiará con su historia mientras son llamados a Berlín para una última y explosiva reunión.   Situada veinte años después de los eventos de Soñar en cubano, la nueva novela de Cristina García es una historia épica sobre la familia, la devoción y la búsqueda eterna del hogar.   “Una hermosa novela: hilarante en un momento, acechante después”. —Chris Bohjalian, autor de The Flight Attendant y The Lioness ENGLISH DESCRIPTION From the acclaimed author of Dreaming in Cuban, a follow-up novel that tracks four generations of the del Pino family against the tumultuous backdrops of Cuba, the ., Germany, and Russia in the new millennium "A beautiful novel: hilarious one moment, haunting the next.” —Chris Bohjalian, author of The Flight Attendant and The Lioness Celia del Pino, the matriarch of a far-flung Cuban family, has watched her descendants spread out across the globe, struggling to make sense of their transnational identities and strained relationships with one another. In Berlin, the charismatic yet troubled Ivanito performs on stage as his drag queen persona, while being haunted by the ghost of his mother. Pilar Puente, adrift in Los Angeles, is a struggling sculptor and the single mother of a young son. In Moscow, Ivanito’s cousin Irina has become the wealthy owner of a lingerie company, but she remains deeply lonely in the wake of her parents’ deaths and her estrangement from her Cuban heritage. Meanwhile, in Havana, Celia prepares to reunite with her lost lover, Gustavo, and wonders whether age and the decades spent apart have altered their bond. Cut off from their Cuban roots, yet still feeling the island’s ineluctable pull, Ivanito and his extended family try to reimagine where—and with whom—they belong. Over the course of a momentous year, each will grapple with their histories as they are pulled to Berlin for a final, explosive reunion. Set twenty years after the events in Dreaming in Cuban, Cristina García’s new novel is an epic tale of family, devotion, and the timeless search for home.
