| Sommario/riassunto: | In Amado Muro and Me , ten-year-old Robert Seltzer discovers that his father, Chester, actually leads two lives--one as a newspaperman and father who somehow always knows what his son is thinking; the other as Amado Muro, a passionate and gifted writer whose pseudonym is adapted from the name of his Mexican immigrant wife. |
