This is a daring, deeply affecting novel about the secrets buried
in the past of an Argentine family; a story of fathers and sons,
corruption and responsibility, memory and history, with a mystery
at its heart. A young writer, living abroad, returns home to his
native Argentina to say goodbye to his dying father. In his
parents' house, he finds a cache of documents - articles, maps,
photographs - and unwittingly begins to unearth his father's
obsession with the disappearance of a local man. Suddenly he comes
face to face with the ghosts of Argentina's dark political past and
with the long-hidden memories of his family's underground
resistance against an oppressive military regime. As the fragments
of the narrator's investigation fall into place - revealing not
only a part of his father's life he had tried to forget, but also
the legacy of an entire generation - My Father's Ghost Is Climbing
in the Rain tells a completely original story of family and
remembrance. It is an audacious accomplishment by an
internationally acclaimed voice.
