El Show de Grossman / The Grossman Show

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

"There is in Laura Fernández's books an appeal to all genuine forms of reading pleasure. And she achieves this with a language that did not exist before her." -Nadal Suau, El Cultural

"A powerful writer with an enviable future." -Manuel Vilas

Matson is a teenager who lives on Rethrick, a planet who's a great fan of Earth, and wants to meet his mother, an Earthling waitress whom his father loved fifteen years ago when he worked as an intergalactic spy. To fulfill his dream, Matson will cross the cosmos in a ship called Wendy, and on his adventure he'll be accompanied by his friend Dandy and two girls who adore Robbie Stamp, a science fiction writer almost unknown on Earth whose books are genuine best sellers in Rethrick.

Defined by the author as "a cross between the movie My Girlfriend Is an Alien and an alien version of The Goonies," The Grossman Show is a genuine narrative festival in which countless pop allusions, unforgettable characters, hilarious dialogues, and the literary genius of Laura Fernández come together.
