Vclav Havel poderoso sin poder en el siglo XX Vopnka Martin (2023)

This autobiography concerns not only the life of Vclav Havel and his ideological legacy, but also the history of Central Europe in the twentieth century. It creates a foundation of essential knowledge that may interest every curious reader. Vclav Havels life began amid major historical events such as the Second World War and the establishment of the Iron Curtain, yet he set history in motion. Was he more powerful as a president who tried, in vain, to make politics more humane, or as a prisoner of the Communist regime who acted according to his conscience? The pressure of current threats makes it increasingly clear that European politics has not seen a more impressive personality in recent decades. Martin Vopnka has extensive experience as an author of literature for children, young people and adults, and his books have been translated into ten languages. In this work, he once again demonstrates his ability to select information and reflect the most essential contexts, while making no secret that the Havel subject is deeply personal to him. Eva Bartoovs apt illustrations help readers better understand the era, Havel and the history. This Spanish-language edition is translated from the Czech original by Marina Vergara.
