Summary:
"En 2014, tras liderar las mayores manifestaciones de protesta en la historia de Venezuela contra el régimen de Nicolas Maduro, el joven político Leopoldo López se vio enfrentado a la decisión más difícil de su vida: o abandonaba su país y seguía la lucha desde el extranjero, o permanecía en Caracas hasta que lo detuvieran. Debía elegir entre la libertad, o la cárcel. Decidió sacrificar su vida familiar y confortable --y entregarse. Al hacer lo que nadie esperaba, se convirtió en héroe. Escrita con vigoroso pulso narrativo, Javier Moro nos cuenta la historia de un padre de familia que de la noche a la mañana se encuentra en una celda por un crimen que no cometió, de una madre que se ve obligada a maquillar la realidad ante sus hijos al tiempo que clama en la ONU y en la Casa Blanca por la liberación de su marido, de unos padres que no se resignan a que su hijo pierda la vida entre rejas. Y de cómo, poco a poco, el mundo fue conociendo la verdad sobre lo que realmente sucede en Venezuela." -- Sobrecubierta.
"In 2014, after leading the largest protest demonstrations in the history of Venezuela against the regime of Nicolas Maduro, the young politician Leopoldo López was faced with the most difficult decision of his life: either he would leave his country and continue the fight from abroad. , or remained in Caracas until they arrested him. He had to choose between freedom or prison. He decided to sacrifice his familiar and comfortable life - and give himself up. By doing what no one expected, he became a hero. Written with a vigorous narrative pulse, Javier Moro tells us the story of a father who finds himself in a cell overnight for a crime he did not commit, of a mother who is forced to disguise reality for her children. at the same time she cries out at the UN and the White House for the release of her husband, from parents who cannot resign themselves to their son losing his life behind bars. And how, little by little, the world learned the truth about what is really happening in Venezuela." -- Dust jacket.
