With more than 500 pages, this book uncovers a little-known world for the inhabitants of the Western world. Although the start was made this my pre-trial to have to remember Chinese names throughout history, this was no impediment to after a long time to finish the book.
This book tells about the dreams, of how these are mitigated and are born as a result of changes (most unexpected) environment. It also presents an unimaginable human power over it and scattered among different characters, some good, some bad, to achieve the unthinkable at the cost of self-sacrifice and to tolerate and resist without yielding against injustice and adversity in many cases this tirelessly.
Another thing that stands out in this work and that circulates around it, lies in the power of some at the expense of the ignorance of others, perhaps the fundamental principle of any authoritarian and dictatorial regime in which one or some become the eyes of the rest who can control like puppets to the point of making them feel what they feel and want to develop a sense of guilt so strong that exempts the opportunity to challenge anything. Although our country has been very difficult to get an early dictatorship, I feel I could have stayed in the earlier generations that feeling of leaving certain issues for other (so other people think, say the press) and a total disregard for being part of a shift or something, as I see in politics, which for many is like "what the majority say" or else as when delegates were elected in some schools as a joke to the teacher.
something very valuable is to present the three generations and with it an explanation and justification for certain behaviors that at first sight for a Democrat would be absurd. Something initially incomprehensible but I finally managed to assimilate (but not share) over the pages was the fanaticism which some people may to sacrifice everything in pursuit of an idea (from another person) and secondly, how you can take advantage of a volatile situation and become the great leader of a nation.
To anyone interested, I can only recommend this book, not the outcome, either by history immersed itself (it is not a history book as such but is full of historical facts) but because the reader transmits and inserts almost unknown in a world in which to some extent, unlike the protagonists, has a say and feel, without fear. Finally can see and feel the freedom, which many of us is as tangible as the air we breathe (we know it exists but not always we have this).
felt a duty to express my opinion on this work, excellently good even without the author's passion for the countryside, without having to use parts of it, which I hope I have succeeded.
