Overview
Zuli Linares es una joven que en apariencia lleva una vida tranquila hasta que un día tocan a su puerta para entregarle una singular herencia envuelta en cajas de cartón. A través de esas pertenencias que eran de su padre, una figura escurridiza de la que siempre supo poco, dará inicio una búsqueda inusitada tras las huellas que le dejó a partir de su desaparición definitiva. Entre los objetos heredados encuentra una fotografía que nunca antes había visto, que avivará las inquietudes sobre su pasado, su infancia, su madre... y sus falsos recuerdos. A partir de ahí, Zuli se sumergirá en un insólito laberinto que la obligará a internarse por los recovecos del barrio chino, la sabiduría del I Ching y una vertiginosa persecución. Será de la mano de Gonz, su rumi, y de Demonio, su gato, que Zuli logrará desentrañar esa dolorosa línea del tiempo que le fue vedada y podrá, de alguna manera, saber quién era para lograr empezar de nuevo. Con una voz fresca, Mariana Osorio Gumá nos regala una novela entrañable en torno a la amistad, al misterio del propio origen con el dolor de sus silenciamientos y la llamarada de sus insospechadas revelaciones. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Zuli Linares is a young woman who appears to lead a quiet life until one day someone knocks on her door to deliver a unique inheritance wrapped in cardboard boxes. Through these objects that belonged to her father—who was always an elusive figure she always knew little about—she will begin an unusual search for the traces he left behind after his definitive disappearance. Among the inherited objects, she finds a photograph she has never seen before, which will fuel her concerns about her past, her childhood, her mother... and her false memories. From there, Zuli will immerse herself in an unusual labyrinth that will force her to delve into the nooks and crannies of Chinatown, the wisdom of the I Ching and a dizzying chase. With the help of Gonz, her roomie, and Demonio, her cat, Zuli will manage to unravel that painful timeline that was hidden from her and will somehow be able to find out who she was in order to start over. With a fresh voice, Mariana Osorio Gumá gives us an endearing novel about friendship, the mystery of one's own origins with the pain of their silences and the flare of their unexpected revelations.
