El derecho a disentir

Wiesenthal, Mauricio

In the essays collected in this book, Mauricio Wiesenthal tries to "settle accounts" with his time, because, as he himself explains, "being free consists precisely in knowing how to escape from the prison of our circumstance to organize our ideas and our life from a perspective more distant". Written in a thousand places in the world, these pages are a celebration -a real feast- of the gift of contemplating and evaluating "untimely", that is, in a critical and not very accommodating way (insubordinate to convenience), the time that we have had to live: "Well, history -whether it is rewound or watched in slow motion- looks like football matches, when the most applauded events by the fans of each team are analyzed; details that, not infrequently, are the worst and dirtiest of each play". A book full of brilliance, written with a prose as expressive as it is crystalline, that will fascinate (and sometimes encourage and comfort) the reader, showing them hidden treasures of the museum of time and accompanying them towards open horizons.
