Las lecciones de una vida dedicada a la guerra que nos ayudan a entender nuestro mundo y a nosotros mismos
Hernán Zin ha trabajado como cronista durante más de veinte años en los conflictos más peligrosos de nuestro planeta. Una experiencia que le ha permitido conocer de primer mano los múltiples rostros de la condición humana: la crueldad, la barbarie, pero también la esperanza, la cooperación y el deseo de contar lo vivido para cambiar el mundo.
Hernán Zin has been writing about the most dangerous conflicts on the planet for over twenty years--experience that allowed him to know firsthand the many faces of the human condition: cruelty, brutality, but also hope, cooperation, and the desire to tell others what he has lived through to change the world. But, how does someone adapt to a normal life after spending two decades at war? With humanity, excitement, and a smile on his face, in this book, Hernán retraces the most important episodes of his career. He allows us to discover the everyday reality of countries such as Afghanistan, Congo, Somalia, or Palestine. Since he was forced to abandon the frontline of armed conflicts due to his mental health, he hasn't stopped looking for clues to lead a life with greater serenity, temperance, and fulfillment. The consequence are these lessons, a vital testimony that helps us understand the world around us and ourselves.
