Summary:
"El 11 de septiembre de 2001, el periodista Mario Palmero fue enviado de la Ciudad de México a Nueva York a fin de cubrir el atentado contra las Torres Gemelas. Dado que los vuelos estaban interrumpidos, viajó en coche hasta Manhattan sin soltar el volante durante tres días, convencido de que pronto estallaría la Tercera Guerra Mundial. Lo acompañaron dos fotógrafos de guerra: un malicioso corresponsal europeo, cuya carrera se encontraba en declive, y un viejo periodista latinoamericano acosado por sus escrúpulos. A medida que recorre un territorio en conflicto, y que la tensión entre los viajeros aumenta, el periodista realiza un examen profundo de la vida que ha llevado hasta entonces: de la dictadura argentina que vivió en su infancia y el exilio forzado a la violencia creciente en el México contemporáneo. Pronto el viaje por América se convierte en una investigación implacable sobre aquello que acecha en todo momento a la Humanidad."
"On September 11, 2001, journalist Mario Palmero is sent from Mexico City to New York to cover the attack on the Twin Towers. With all flights grounded, he drives to Manhattan, not letting go of the steering wheel for three straight days, all the while convinced that the world is about to explode into World War Three. He is accompanied by two war photographers: a malicious European correspondent with his career in decline and an old Latin American journalist hounded by his scruples. As they traverse the conflicted territory, and as tension mounts among the three travelers, Palmero deeply examines the life he has led up to that point: from the Argentine dictatorship he lived through in his childhood, to forced exile, to the growing violence in present-day Mexico." -- cataloger's translation of cover.
