ABOUT THE BOOK
While on tour in Europe, the pianist Juan Sebastián Lebonté learns of his father’s death. Returning to Buenos Aires, he is faced with a crumbling marriage, buried family secrets and a surprising inheritance: a piece of land in Paso del Rey, now occupied by a community of workers who once dreamed of revolution.
As he takes on a new identity – working with his hands, digging into the past – he begins to unravel the mystery of his father, a forgotten factory and the American pianist whose music haunted his life.
Hudson is a haunting novel of memory, transformation and the quiet violence that lingers beneath the surface of history.
