Una novela desternillante y feroz sobre vínculos, pérdidas, desastres familiares y la aventura de crecer.
Veronica pasa su infancia y adolescencia en un barrio de Roma junto con su excéntrica familia: una madre omnipresente que vive permanentemente angustiada, un padre lleno de estrafalarias obsesiones y un hermano mayor, casi perfecto, que es el centro de toda la atención. Día a día tendrá que sortear situaciones tan embarazosas como desternillantes y descubrirá la impostura como forma de mantenerse cuerda y lidiar con la vida que le ha tocado en suerte.
En esta divertidísima novela, ganadora del Premio Strega Giovani y que ha causado sensación en Italia, Raimo nos ofrece una precisa radiografía de esa energía paralizante que puede llegar a ser la familia y de la empresa siempre incierta que es convertirse en mujer.
Nada es verdad es un extraordinario retrato generacional, feroz e irreverente, sobre vínculos, pérdidas, desastres familiares y la aventura de crecer; una novela que rebosa inteligencia y que nos recuerda el valor siempre terapéutico de la comedia.
«Prepárate para estar hablando de este libro durante mucho, mucho tiempo.» Paolo Giordano
«La nieta díscola de Léxico familiar de Natalia Ginzburg.» Il Corriere della Sera
«Cuando empiezas a leer un libro y ves que, desde el minuto uno, es graciosísimo y perturbador, sabes que te has topado con algo especial. Nada es verdad es esa clase de libro.» Roddy Doyle
«Leer esta novela es un festín. Pero muchas páginas son como heridas de medusa: queman a distancia.» Claudia Durastanti
«Me he enamorado. Raimo escribe con una delicada brutalidad, es desternillante a la par que desgarradora.» Monica Ali
«Raimo juega con el lector a traspasar la línea de lo que, dentro de una familia, se puede considerar aceptable como para convertirse en recuerdo y no en trauma. (...) Raimo me ha enamorado y a la vez dejado una huella oscura.» (Rosario Villajos, La Lectura)
«Es un libro muy bueno (...) Raimo logra la total empatía del lector.» Lara Hermoso (Efecto Doppler, RNE-Radio 3)
«Una vuelta de tuerca a la autoficción en la que se deshace de toda pomposidad, de toda épica, de todo respeto (pero no del afecto). Raimo no se corta ni con hacha. (...) Se lee de un tirón, con gesto de sorpresa y con una sonrisa, cuando no con una risa. Y hace pensar, sí, qué será una familia feliz.» Elena Sierra (El Correo)
«He leído un libro que me hubiera encantado escribir. Me he reído mucho. Lo tengo todo subrayado.» Amaya Ascunce (ELLE)
«[Raimo] proyecta una única voz: fuerte y clara, irónica y severa, cómica y trágica, que emplea con una ferocidad magistral.» Ángeles López (La Razón)
«Divertida, cáustica, de una frescura traducida a la perfección por Carlos Gumpert, esta memoria familiar honra a sus predecesores más ilustres, con Natalia Ginzburg a la cabeza. Raimo parece dar con la tecla exacta con la que emocionar sin ser solemne.» Alberto Gordo (La Lectura / El Mundo)
«Se lee solo y se pasa bien y mal. Garantía de éxito.» Elisa Victoria (Instagram)
«La vida es una broma. La familia no es un anuncio de Ikea. Veronica Raimo nos hace reír de todo eso que nos hace llorar.» Ana Belenda (Fugas)
«Resulta absolutamente imposible no enamorarse de este libro (...) sin duda uno de los libros más mágicos con los que yo me he topado en los últimos tiempos (...) es fascinante, y su amarga comicidad labra poderosas cicatrices sobre la sórdida marabunta que forma siempre la irrompible carne del patriarcado.» Sonia Fides (Público)
«Nos mentimos con tanta frecuencia como nos decimos la verdad, así escribe Veronica Raimo, con la vergüenza, el miedo, pero también el orgullo inconfesable, que nos asaltan ante nuestras propias acciones.» César de Bordons (Diario de Sevilla)
«Un sagaz texto de autoficción, rebosante de humor ácido.» Eva Blanco (Vogue)
«Me gusta mucho, estoy entregada (...) Nada es verdad habla de la identidad de cómo somos, quiénes somos y cómo terminan nuestras vidas terminan siendo lo que son.» Aloma Rodriguez (Hoy empieza todo 2)
«Raimo escribe de su familia, pero sobre todo escribe de cómo escribir de la familia. (...) La novela es divertidísima.» Aloma Rodriguez (El Periódico de España)
«No faltan sentencias demoledoras en la novela autobiográfica de Veronica Raimo. Es desternillante y tierna.» Página Dos
«Veronica Raimo narra sin piedad su vida y la de su familia en un libro en el que resalta lo anómalo y lo absurdo, lo insólito y lo genial. (...) Este original y sensible libro, lejos de ser una catarsis, es un juego de “verisimilitud” en el que la memoria es como el “juego de dados” y la única regla válida es temer “a la verdad más que a la muerte”. » José Luis de Juan (Babelia / El País)
«Lejos de lo que pueda parecer, este no es un libro de memorias. (...) Si algo ha logrado Raimo con esta obra es hacer de la cotidianidad algo extraordinario.» Lara Gómez Ruiz (La Vanguardia)
«La clave de este libro es que Raimo cuenta su vida familiar con una gracia apabullante y convierte cualquier episodio en un deleite en el que se ríe de todo, empezando por ella misma. (...) Una reflexión sobre la memoria como algo no demasiado diferente a la escritura: un ejercicio de ficción en el que reconstruimos lo que ocurrió impregnándolo con lo aprendido a lo largo de la vida.» Eva Cosculluela (ABC)
«Todo consigue volverlo interesante porque tira de ese recurso prácticamente infalible que es el sarcasmo, cuando éste encierra genuina melancolía. Cuando de éste se vale para mirar el mundo con la distancia suficiente para sobrevivir.» María Paredes (The Objective)
