Happy families are all alike, but every family is unhappy in its own way. As with a crossword, in 'O imposible de desatar' the reader must gradually put together the story of a modern day family - a week in their life, from breakfast to bedtime - in order to uncover the truth that lies behind their trivial gestures and half-spoken words; to share their hidden feelings and reveal the meaning of their silences.
With a new, surprising way of narrating, Iván García Campos traces the hidden face of contemporary society.
