ENGLISH DESCRIPTION A journey. Two triangles. Three voices. A matriarchal twist on a road movie: father and son set out on the road together, for the first and possibly the last time, while mother speaks up and sets out on a mission of her own, this one possibly even more risky. Lito has just turned ten and dreams of trucks. Mario is sick and has troubles with his memory. Before it's too late, both begin a decisive journey during which they will share much more than just time and space. Haunted by the idea of loss, Elena dives into a cathartic adventure with the potential to challenge her mortal limits. Addicted to reading, she can't stop stumbling upon her own life in books, and vice versa. Alternating between tenderness and rawness, Fabricated Memories moves from childhood to wickedness, from family to sorrow. A disturbing novel that delves into the relationship between Thatanos and Eros, posing a question with deep consequences: how does illness affect the way we read and experience sex?. One of the best books of 2012, according to La Vanguardia.
