  • Overview

    PREMIO LUMEN 2026

    «Una novela ambiciosa que nos sumerge en la inquietante investigación de un estafador público y privado. Buscando descifrar a su marido y siguiendo las huellas de su pasado, la documentalista Miranda K. se pregunta acerca de la naturaleza del amor. ¿Acaso no es toda pareja un pacto de ficción? ¿Qué tipo de mujer eres cuando has vivido la mitad de tu vida con un mentiroso?». —Del acta del Jurado

    «Si alguien me pregunta cómo hice para pasar quince años enamorada del mismo hombre, diría que es porque siempre supe que había algo en él a lo que no podría acceder. Esa parte era una puerta cerrada con llave. Detrás estaba el secreto».

    Cuando el periodista más admirado de Francia es acusado de haber inventado parte de los reportajes que lo convirtieron en una celebridad, su caída es tan espectacular como su ascenso. Premios prestigiosos, reconocimiento internacional, una carrera brillante: todo se derrumba de la noche a la mañana. Pero para Miranda, su esposa, el verdadero escándalo no es el fraude. Es el abandono.

    Mientras intenta reconstruir qué ocurrió con Charles —el hombre al que amó, admiró y quizá nunca terminó de conocer—, Miranda se embarca en la realización de un documental sobre Hélène y André, una pareja que lleva más de sesenta años juntos. Quiere entender qué sostiene un amor a lo largo del tiempo, qué queda cuando desaparecen la pasión, las certezas y las versiones que nos contamos sobre nosotros mismos.

    Entre entrevistas, recuerdos, secretos familiares y la crianza de Emma, su hija, Miranda se adentra en una investigación que es al mismo tiempo pública e íntima. Cuanto más descubre sobre las mentiras de Charles, más se ve obligada a revisar las propias: las renuncias, las idealizaciones y las ficciones que sostuvieron su matrimonio.

    ¿Puede sobrevivir el amor a la verdad? ¿Cuánto de lo que llamamos amor es memoria, cuánto relato y cuánto invención? El amor inventado es una novela incisiva y conmovedora sobre la fragilidad de la verdad, los mecanismos de la memoria y las historias que construimos para seguir viviendo cuando aquello en lo que creíamos se rompe.

    ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

    2026 LUMEN PRIZE

    “An ambitious novel that draws us into the unsettling investigation of a con artist in both his public and private lives. As documentary filmmaker Miranda K. tries to decipher her husband and follow the traces of his past, she begins to question the very nature of love. Isn’t every couple, in some way, a pact of fiction? What kind of woman are you when you’ve spent half your life with a liar?” —From the Jury’s Statement

    “If someone asked me how I managed to spend fifteen years in love with the same man, I would say it was because I always knew there was a part of him I could never reach. That part was a locked door. Behind it was the secret.”

    When France’s most admired journalist is accused of fabricating parts of the reports that made him famous, his fall is as spectacular as his rise. Prestigious awards, international recognition, a brilliant career: everything collapses overnight. But for Miranda, his wife, the real scandal is not the fraud. It is the abandonment.

    As she tries to piece together what happened to Charles—the man she loved, admired, and perhaps never fully knew—Miranda sets out to make a documentary about Hélène and André, a couple who have been together for more than sixty years. She wants to understand what sustains love over time, what remains when passion, certainty, and the stories we tell ourselves begin to fade.

    Through interviews, memories, family secrets, and the daily demands of raising her daughter Emma, Miranda undertakes an investigation that is both public and deeply personal. The more she uncovers about Charles’s lies, the more she is forced to revisit her own: the compromises, the idealizations, and the fictions that sustained her marriage.

    Can love survive the truth? How much of what we call love is memory, how much is story, and how much is invention? Invented Love is an incisive and moving novel about the fragility of truth, the workings of memory, and the stories we build in order to keep living when everything we believed in falls apart.
