ENGLISH DESCRIPTON

I'm gay. A gay soccer player. I'm also a son, a brother, a friend, a colleague and a human being.

Gabriel Baroli leaves his native Argentina for stardom at one of Spain's top soccer clubs. Following the sudden death of his father, he turns for support to the team captain, lvaro de la Cruz. The two form a close friendship that, little by little, evolves into something much more intense, with unimaginable consequences. Gabriel must either hide and deny their relationship or come out as gay in public, with all the repercussions that could bring.

In this courageous debt novel, journalist Lorena Gonz lez tackles taboo topics such as homosexuality in sports, mental health and suicide. As well as being a moving love story, it offers an inside look at the high-stakes world of professional soccer, an environment rife with moneyed interests, media pressure, instability, prejudice and betrayal. Keep Quiet reveals the all-too human side of society's idols and the secrets everyone knows but none will say.
