Doctor Hector Amad Gomez dedicated his last years, until the day he was murdered in the center of Medellin, to the defense of social equality and human rights. "The Oblivion We Will Become" is the tender and patient reconstruction of a person, the author's father. It is a story full of smiles that sings the joy of life while, at the same time, revealing the sadness and anger caused by the death of a rare creature.

The enchantment of the paternal figure is a challenge that runs through many famous pages of literary history. Who does not remember the works of Kafka, Philip Roth, Martin Amis, or V.S. Naipaul about their beloved or controversial parent? Now it will be difficult for us to forget this heartbreaking book, written with generosity and tenderness by Hector Amad Fasiolinsse.
