“La versión de Eric” by the renowned author Nando López is on this year’s list of New Spanish Books- Germany -category YA.
La versión de Eric combines the intrigue of a thriller with the intimate perspective of its narrator protagonist. The action unfolds in a police station, late at night. As Eric waits to talk to the police about the crime that has just occurred, he recalls his past and everything that led up to the events that have brought him here: he was nine years old when his father left home, eleven when the nightmares started, thirteen the first time he was admitted, fourteen when he met Tania. His friendship with Tania will play a key role in his life as, together, they set out on a new path that leads them to discover and accept themselves. It is through Tania that he takes up acting classes, Lorca, the series, success, followers… but also, on that terrible night, full of secrets, there will be a corpse on the tarmac and half-truths in abundance. Eric just wants his version of the story to be told.
I would like to take this opportunity to strongly recommend this highly topical and exciting book.
