During an economic and social crisis in Argentina, the teenage son of a public political figure uses a pseudonym to publish a blog that gives a confidant's view into his private world. Always accompanied by a soundtrack of punk and rock, he wields his early-2000s computer keyboard like a switchblade, draining the pus from the silent wounds of his romantic and family life.
What You Don't Expect from Me is an intimate novel that distorts both realism and internet writing to expose the trauma of the upper class, online life, bullying, sexual discovery, toxic relationships, and an introverted teenager's cry for freedom.
