Content descriptions
| Summary, etc.: | "El cártel es una colosal narración que se mueve entre los áridos escenarios mexicanos y los despachos de los poderosos en Washington, y que se extiende hasta ciudades europeas como Berlín y Barcelona. El absorbente trabajode documentación de Winslow (libros, prensa, fotos, vídeos, encuentros personales...) le ocupó cinco años, y marcó su vida personal por las implicaciones que acarrea adentrarse en un mundo tan increíblemente violento y corrupto. «Elperiodismo te proporciona los datos, pero la ficción te cuenta la verdad», confesó Don Winslow en una entrevista. Aunque El cártel sea ficción, muchos de los asesinatos, torturas y actuaciones policiales que se describen en el librose basan en hechos reales, ocurridos sobre todo entre los años 2000 y 2011."-- Casadellibro.com. |
