El hambre

"We know hunger, we are used to hunger: we feel hungry two, three times a day. There is nothing more frequent, more constant, more present in our lives than hunger, and, at the same time, for many of us, nothing more. far away than true hunger". To understand it, to tell it, Martín Caparrós traveled the geography of hunger, from India, Bangladesh, Niger, Kenya and Sudan to developed nations such as the United States and Spain. There he met those who, for various reasons -droughts, extreme poverty, wars, marginalization- suffer from hunger. Hunger is made from his stories, and from the stories of those who work in very precarious conditions to alleviate it, and those of those who speculate on food and starve so many people. And, unfortunately, it is still so relevant. Six years later, pandemic through, the problem has deepened: that is why we present a new, revised and updated edition of this in-depth research on the mechanisms that prevent nearly a billion people from eating what they need.
