"The scene Amir discovered upon returning to the village was different from the usual. He watched as reddish tongues of fire devoured the straw huts of his settlement. That wasn't the worst part; what truly overwhelmed the young man was the succession of motionless bodies that dotted the streets with death. Not even in his worst nightmares could he have imagined witnessing what he found at that moment."
Slavery is not a drama of the past but a tragedy of the present. In this novella, César Vidal addresses it as it unfolds at the beginning of the 21st century. In this way, the reader will be immersed in a story that will shake them, leading them to view the world differently. It is sadly true that slavery remains a very profitable business today for those who perpetuate it. It should also be a call to conscience for all those who desire a more just and, ultimately, better world.
