Description

La saga tragi-comique d'une famille dominicaine émigrée aux États-Unis dans une banlieue du New Jersey, à travers le regard d'Oscar, obèse et recalé de l'amour en quête d'absolu. Nourrie des destins de ses aïeux brisés par la torture, la prison, l'exil et les amours impossibles, l'histoire d'Oscar s'écrit, fulgurante et désastreuse.
