Fabio vuela en su bicicleta por las calles de Bogotá, mientras los niños del vecindario lo siguen. Es justo allí donde la vida se siente bien--donde el mundo de los adultos, y sus mentiras, desaparece. Pero un día, Fabio lo olvida, olvida como andar en bicicleta. Y nunca volverá a ser el mismo. Desde Colombia viene un debut especial, Alejandra Algorta, y una novela de descubrimiento y la nostalgia de crecer. NOW IN PAPERBACK! A New York Times Best of the Year
