Esta es una historia sobre la necesidad de escapar de los demas y de uno mismo, sobre el abandono, el amor y los machismos, sobre aquello que se dice, aquello que se insinua y aquello que se calla, sobre la mentira y las diferentes violencias que enfrentamos.

No contar todo, novela de no ficcion, presenta la saga de los Monge, al mismo tiempo que cuenta la historia del pais que habitaron. El abuelo, Carlos Monge McKey, descendiente de irlandeses, finge su propia muerte, haciendo estallar la cantera de su cunado. El padre, Carlos Monge Sanchez, rompe con su familia y con su propia historia para irse a Guerrero, donde, convertido en guerrillero, luchara al lado de Genaro Vazquez. El hijo, Emiliano Monge Garcia, nacera enfermo y vivira sus primeros anos hospitalizado, por lo que sera considerado como el debil de su familia y por lo cual erigira un mundo de ficciones que con los anos se ira haciendo mas y mas complejo y del que despues ya no podra escapar, mas que escapando de todo.

No contar todo es la genealogia de una triple huida, el recordatorio de que una desbandada tambien puede ser una familia.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

This is a story about the necessity to escape from others and from oneself; about neglect, love, and machismo; about what is said, what is insinuated, and what is left unsaid; about lies and the various forms of violence we face.

Not Telling Everything, a non-fiction novel, presents the saga of the Monge family while telling the story of the country they lived in. The grandfather, Carlos Monge McKey, descendant of Irishmen, fakes his own death, allowing his brother-in-law’s quarry to explode. The father, Carlos Monge Sanchez, breaks with his family and with his own history to go to Guerrero, where, as a guerrilla, he fights alongside Genaro Vazquez. The son, Emiliano Monge Garcia, is born ill and lives his earliest years in the hospital, for which he is considered the weak one of the family, and because of which he builds a world of fiction that becomes more and more complex over the years, eventually preventing him from escaping it unless he is escaping everything.

Not Telling Everything is the genealogy of a triple escape, the reminder that a jailbreak can also be a family.
