Un hombre sigue el rastro de mentiras de otro en una cautivadora historia psicol�gica sobre la b�squeda de la identidad, escrita por el galardonado escritor japon�s Keiichiro Hirano en su primera novela traducida al espa�ol. Akira Kido es un abogado especializado en divorcios, cuyo matrimonio corre el riesgo de ser destruido por una desconexi�n emocional. Con la crisis de la mediana edad a la vuelta de la esquina, su vida se ve trastocada por el resurgimiento de una antigua clienta: Rie Takemoto. Ella quiere que Kido investigue a su esposo reci�n fallecido. Tras su muerte, Rie descubre que hab�a estado viviendo una mentira. El nombre, el pasado y toda la identidad de Daisuke pertenec�an a otra persona. La investigaci�n sumerge a Akira en una obsesi�n: descubrir qui�nes eran realmente Daisuke y la persona que usurp� su nombre. En este juego de m�scaras, y tras cada nueva revelaci�n, el abogado compartir� la tentaci�n de borrar su propia vida para crearse una nueva. En Cierto hombre, ganadora del prestigioso Premio Yomiuri de Literatura de Jap�n, Keiichiro Hirano explora la b�squeda de la identidad, la ambig�edad de la memoria, los legados con los que vivimos y morimos, as� como la posibilidad de reconciliarnos con quien nos hemos convertido. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION A man follows the trail of another man's lies in a captivating psychological story about the search for identity, written by award-winning Japanese author Keiichiro Hirano in his first novel translated into Spanish. Akira Kido is a divorce lawyer whose marriage is at risk of being destroyed by emotional disconnection. With a midlife crisis looming, his life is turned upside down by the reappearance of a former client: Rie Takemoto. She wants Kido to investigate her recently deceased husband. After his death, Rie discovers that she had been living a lie. Daisuke's name, past, and entire identity belonged to someone else. The investigation plunges Akira into an obsession: discovering who Daisuke and the person who usurped his name really were. In this game of masks, and after each new revelation, the lawyer will share the temptation to erase his own life in order to create a new one. In Cierto hombre (A Certain Man), the winner of Japan's prestigious Yomiuri Literary Award, Keiichiro Hirano, explores the search for identity, the ambiguity of memory, the legacies we live and die with, and the possibility of reconciling ourselves with who we have become.
