Hambre, hambre

Martha Nussbaum said that literature is a fundamental tool to awaken critical thinking in us. Her great asset: the possibility of allowing us to "put on someone else's shoes", as Hume graphically pointed out, and thus confront many of our principles without leaving our seats. And that is the trick that Jamal takes advantage of in a masterful way in this book in which he confronts us with two very controversial and uncomfortable and very current issues: is international cooperation any use or is it just a way to silence our first-world consciences ? The pedophilia, which terrifies us so much, cannot be fostered by our fear of the taboo of sex? Two current and complex questions and two protagonists who, throughout the book, will analyze the different angles of these questions, unmasking hypocrisies and facing our most intimate fears.
