Bøger af David Trueba

David Trueba invites us to join an electoral caravan: a vibrant novel about politics and politicians. This is the story, from the point of view of a writer, of the electoral campaign of a new candidate for a conservative party, let's say the PP. It is a road novel throughout Spain on a bus with the characters that make up the candidate's team, which aims to give an air of renewal to a party involved in corruption. A great novel, fast, funny, sexy, also very critical, with an unforgettable narrator, a lucid witness of the Spanish political reality, of the new uses of political marketing, of populism, of media tricks, and also a brilliant observer.

Set against the maze of Madrid's congested and contested streets, "Learning to Lose" follows four individuals as they swerve off course in unexpected directions, searching for a way to avoid or accept their losses.

David Nicholls meets Almodovar meets Little Miss Sunshine in this moving and achingly funny novel of friendship and heartbreak from one of Spain's most beloved authors.
