A novel about the will to be happy at any price, embodied in the extraordinary career of the musician Xavier Cugat... A witness to the adventures of the musician Xavier Cugat from a very young age, the narrator of Confeti, a journalist of entertainment, maintains that a good part of human existence is a tailor-made fiction. Born in 1900, Cugat, a bigger than life character, dedicated his life to being happy and famous, always with what he was passionate about: cartoons, orchestras, films, marriages with very young and beautiful women, chihuahuas... Throughout a turbulent and imaginative century, we read the adventures of both men in a game of mirrors in which imagination coexists with the desire to be immortal, eternal.
