Produktbeschreibung
This is a true story - a powerful memoir of survival, trauma, and the courage to reclaim a life stolen too soon.

At the age of six, a boy boards a train leaving Buenos Aires, carrying nothing but a small suitcase, a plastic toy airplane, and the belief that the world is larger than anything he can understand. What awaits him on the other side is not a new beginning, but a descent into a painful childhood marked by silence, fear, and the absence of the man he loved most.

When Darkness Has a Name is more than a memoir - it is a journey through emotional wounds that linger long after the bruises fade. With honesty and heartbreaking clarity, the author reveals how abuse, manipulation, and loneliness shaped his early years, and how resilience became his only path forward.

Yet this is not a book about tragedy. It is a book about fighting back.

Through vivid memories and a voice shaped by both vulnerability and strength, the story shows how a child learned to survive in an environment where affection was scarce and cruelty was normalized. It explores the long shadow of trauma, the echoes of unspoken words, and the silent battles that many carry into adulthood.

A moving and deeply human true story, When Darkness Has a Name invites readers to reflect on the resilience of the human spirit, the cost of silence, and the transformative power of remembering - and finally, healing.

Perfect for readers of memoirs about trauma, personal growth, emotional healing, and family secrets.

Autorenporträt
Claudio Garbo was born in Buenos Aires and raised in Mendoza, between mountains, old radios, and stories that always seemed to arrive with a bit of music in them. He learned early in life that Argentina cannot simply be describedit must be felt. And that every storywhether of tango, fútbol, everyday life, or memories that achecarries a corner where truth still beats.

A writer driven by emotion more than profession, Garbo explores the deepest fibers of Argentine identity and shares them with the world. His books blend memory, poetry, realism, humor, research, and a sensitivity that looks at ordinary moments as if they were quiet miracles.

He writes about what he loves:
the tango he inherited without asking for it,
the fútbol that explains us better than any psychologist,
the real life that wounds, surprises, and teaches,
and the stories that follow us even when we think we've forgotten them.

For Garbo, writing is a way of keeping a small light burning in the night:
a way of telling the reader, softly and without hurry:
"Here we are.
We are a country made of stories.
And as long as someone wants to hear them, they will stay alive."

His mission as an author is both simple and immense:
to help the world know Argentina not through headlines, but through its soul.
