Synopsis | In what is undoubtedly his most exciting chronicle, Juan Villoro tells how he was able to compare the intensity of two of the most terrible earthquakes that Latin America has suffered: the 1985 earthquake in Mexico City and the 2010 earthquake in Santiago de Chile. Convinced that these disasters should be told with the most representative voices involved, Villoro took the stories of his fellow earthquake survivors and built a concert of impressions that is not lacking in suspense or absurdity. “After reading this heartfelt and vibrant book, one might think that the author did not tell the whole truth: 8.8 was written with fear still in the skin, and perhaps in that secret lies its extraordinary power.” -Leonardo Tarifeño |
