On fatherhood. Manuel Vilas and Jorge Volpi in conversation with Irma Gallo

Querétaro 2018, 

In their most recent biographical works, Manuel Vilas and Jorge Volpi show their most personal and private side. Vilas, author of Ordesa, uses non-fiction to write about Spain in recent years; this painful and emotional work deals with memories of his father. Volpi also shows his most profound side in Examen de mi padre, in which he talks about his personal experiences after the death of his father, and also carries out a rigorous examination of contemporary Mexico. In conversation with Irma Gallo.
