Y los angeles segunda, porque el fútbol genera pasiones y lealtades tan duraderas e inescrutables como el mayor de los vínculos. A lo largo de los angeles novela cualquier hincha de un equipo prestigioso e histórico (de los angeles Primera División española o de cualquier otra competición europea o americana) se identificará con el orgullo del padre, soñará con haber tenido el talento futbolístico del hijo y, a l. a. postre, sufrirá con el conflicto inevitable entre los dos. los angeles historia se enmarca en un escenario muy concreto y reconocible, el del fútbol moderno, y las referencias a sus estrellas más célebres y a sus respectivos equipos, como el Barcelona y el actual Madrid, se entremezclan con los detalles propios de un viaje own y customary, donde los personajes secundarios, l. a. madre y l. a. hija, l. a. novia y los amigos, también juegan un papel primary en los angeles trama y en su desenlace.
El autor, J.M. Isasi, nació en Bilbao en 1970, pero l. a. mayor parte de su vida l. a. ha pasado entre los pueblos de Leioa, Lekeitio y Algorta, donde dwell desde hace más de quince años.
Publicó tres novelas de juventud en los angeles Editorial Bassarai, los angeles última de ellas hace más de una década, en el 2003. Tras un largo tiempo de silencio, a comienzos del 2013 retomó l. a. escritura gracias al periódico El Correo, donde habitualmente publica artículos de estilo literario relacionados con el Athletic membership. El hijo del hincha nace de forma simultánea y paralela a dicha actividad periodística, y su trama se nutre de buena parte de las inquietudes vertidas en los artículos de prensa. En ellos, al igual que en esta obra de ficción, el fútbol no deja de ser un espejo de l. a. vida misma y, por lo tanto, una buena excusa para contar una historia que hable de ciertas cuestiones de importancia.
