Overview

Un retrato imprescindible de la violencia, el poder y la belleza de América Latina en este siglo.

Durante más de cuarenta años, Alma Guillermoprieto ha recorrido incansablemente Latinoamérica, entrevistando a asesinos y a las familias de sus víctimas, hablando con barrenderos y artistas, con ruidosos carnavaleros y religiosos circunspectos, con políticos reflexivos e histriónicos mandatarios.

Guillermoprieto extrae lazos comunes entre personas y contextos diversos, como los efectos de la guerra contra las drogas en regiones rurales y empobrecidas o las experiencias de aquellos involucrados en la violencia de Estado o patrocinada por los cárteles. Al mismo tiempo, muestra cómo el arte de estas regiones traduce la nostalgia y el dolor en algo hermoso o cómo el periodismo puede levantar la voz contra la injusticia.

En Esta improbable tierra prometida, su tercer volumen de crónicas, completa su complejo y siempre convincente retrato de la Latinoamérica de nuestro tiempo, en toda su tragedia y gloria y en una era de populismo y demagogia, e intenta, una vez más, responder a la gran pregunta sin resolver: ¿cómo cambiamos nuestro futuro para que no se parezca tanto a nuestro pasado?

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

For forty years and more Alma Guillermoprieto has wandered tirelessly over the countries of Latin America, interviewing assassins and the families of their victims, talking to street sweepers and artists, rowdy carnival makers and thoughtful politicians (and plenty of rowdy politicians as well).

Guillermoprieto draws out common threads in different contexts, like the effects of The War on Drugs in rural and poverty-stricken regions and the experiences of people mixed up in the fray of state- or cartel-sponsored violence. At the same time, she shows how Latin American art translates nostalgia and pain into great beauty.

In The Years of Blood, the third volume of her collected reporting, she completes her complex and always compelling portrait of the Latin America of our times, in all its tragedy and glory, as it enters a new era of populism and demagoguery, and tries, yet again, to answer the great unsolved question: How do we change our future so that it does not so exhaustingly resemble our past?
