Overview

El regreso de Roberto Ampuero a la no ficción con un testimonio personal y político escrito desde los pasillos del poder, donde se toman las decisiones que marcan el rumbo de un país.

"Recordé entonces la advertencia de Mario Vargas Llosa durante una cena en casa del presidente Piñera sobre la política: —Ahí reinan las más bajas pasiones humanas, y verás cosas que son peores que las peores que puedas imaginar".

Tras el éxito de Nuestros años verde olivo y Detrás del muro, Roberto Ampuero vuelve a la no ficción con un libro tan personal como político. Estas páginas no buscan la neutralidad del balance diplomático retrospectivo ni el tono frío del memorándum oficial: son el testimonio en primera persona de un escritor que estuvo en el centro del poder en una etapa de inflexión global.

Ampuero narra su paso por la Cancillería durante el segundo gobierno de Sebastián Piñera desde dentro y sin intermediarios. Desde la visita oficial a Donald Trump en la Casa Blanca hasta la tensa jornada en Cúcuta, desde la polémica gira a China hasta conversaciones donde se plantean apasionantes cuestiones estratégicas, el autor reconstruye episodios clave de la diplomacia chilena reciente con memoria afilada y vocación narrativa.

Más que una crónica de viajes o una sucesión de hitos políticos, Entre la pluma y la política es una reflexión sobre el ejercicio del poder, las tensiones entre principios y pragmatismo y la acelerada reconfiguración del orden mundial. Ampuero observa cómo cambian las reglas del juego internacional y qué lugar debería ocupar un país como Chile en ese escenario. Un testimonio que acerca la realidad del mundo diplomático a la ciudadanía, que solo lo imagina, pues vive lejos de él.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Roberto Ampuero’s return to nonfiction with a personal and political account written from the corridors of power, where the decisions that shape a country’s course are made.

"I then recalled Mario Vargas Llosa’s warning about politics during a dinner at President Piñera’s home: “That is where the basest human passions reign, and that is where you will see things worse than the worst you can imagine.”"

Following the success of Nuestros años verde olivo and Detrás del muro, Roberto Ampuero returns to nonfiction with a book that is as personal as it is political. These pages do not seek the neutrality of a retrospective diplomatic assessment nor the cold tone of an official memorandum: they are the first-person testimony of a writer who was at the center of power during a period of global upheaval.

Ampuero recounts his time at the Foreign Ministry during Sebastián Piñera’s second administration from the inside and without intermediaries. From the official visit to Donald Trump at the White House to the tense day in Cúcuta, from the controversial tour of China to conversations raising compelling strategic questions, the author reconstructs key episodes of recent Chilean diplomacy with a sharp memory and a narrative flair.

More than a travelogue or a succession of political milestones, Between the Pen and Politics is a reflection on the exercise of power, the tensions between principles and pragmatism, and the rapid reconfiguration of the world order. Ampuero observes how the rules of the international game are changing and what place a country like Chile should occupy in that scenario. A testimony that brings the reality of the diplomatic world closer to the public, who can only imagine it, as they live far removed from it.
