Publisher's summary

Tras La hija de la española, llega la nueva revelación de la literatura latinoamericana: una asombrosa primera novela basada en un hecho real.

«La novela más hermosa de este año. [...] No apta para quienes disimulan, reprimen o tergiversan los sentimientos. En tres palabras, un texto bellísimo.»
Esteban Carlos Mejía, El Espectador

Cuando tenía once años, un sicario mató a mi padre. Yo era una niña que no imaginaba que algo así pudiera pasar. Pero pasó. Todavía me cuesta creer que apenas treinta y cinco gramos de acero y un gramo de pólvora hayan podido acabar con una familia.

Cuando Héctor Abad Faciolince, autor de El olvido que seremos, leyó esta primera novela, decidió publicarla de inmediato; muy poco después Lumen se sumaría a su entusiasmo. Tras el éxito en Colombia y mientras Francia prepara su traducción, Cómo maté a mi padre llega a los lectores de ambos lados del océano como una de las revelaciones literarias de los últimos tiempos.

Please note: This audiobook is in Spanish.

crudo y poderoso relato

Me costó escuchar al principio peor no sabía que era capaz de escuchar algo tan crudo y doloroso. sin embargo la historia me atrapó y no puede dejar de escuchar hasta terminarlo. Soy nueva en eso de escuchar libros. 100% recomendado

Hermoso

Libro súper bien narrado, hermoso y desgarrador, con magníficas descripciones que permiten adentrarse enteramente en esta historia tan trite

Directa t muy creativa

Que bueno es leer una historia que no sólo merecía ser contada sino que es bella y sencillamente contada. La metáfora fresca y la sensibilidad profunda. Un relato tan directo como encantador.

Sad story but told so beautiful.

It is a sad story about the victims of the violence in Colombia but told with so many beautiful details of the Colombian culture.

Muy buena historia

Me gustó bastante el libro de esta escritora colombiana. Es la tristeza y el desamparo de muchas familias en nuestra historia, lamentablemente. La narración está bien

Lack of content

I had another expectation about the book and I feel that it has lack of content. It didn’t capture my attention from the beginning.
