Me regalaron este libro y debo decir que fue un muy bien regalo. Es di ícil y desgarrador es pensar lo fácil que algo así podría suceder en nuestra sociedad con el movimiento de algunas personas en el poder. 

Este es un libro que toca temas fuertes que tal vez a simple vista no lo pareciera, pero te deja pensando.
