«No Estabas en el Cielo» is the novel by Fernando Delgado, published by Planeta Publishing in paperback (312 pages, in Spanish).
Carlos starts school and discovers that all his classmates have a father, while he does not. To fill that void, he invents a father figure with his childish imagination; what is initially a comfort becomes an obsession. The suspicion that his father might still be alive drives him to seek answers, in a story of absences, memory, and family secrets.
The work was originally published in 1996; this paperback edition is from September 2002 and falls under Literature and Fiction.
For readers of Spanish-language fiction interested in stories of childhood, paternal absence, and family bonds.
Fernando Delgado was a Spanish actor, screenwriter and film director. Delgado directed a mixture of documentary and feature films, including the 1936 bullfighting drama Currito of the Cross. His son Luis María Delgado was also a film director.
