Pueden ser blanco de un francotirador aburrido, tropezar con una granada de mortero, pisar una mina olvidada, encontrarse con una bala que aun no tenia destinatario o reventar haciendo una entrevista. Viven al limite, entre cadaveres y ninos agonizantes; junto a ancianos olvidados por todos, incluso por la muerte; sin poder intervenir, sin poder participar, pues lo unico que se espera de cilios es que informen, que obtengan imagenes, cuanto mas cruentas mejor, deprisa, siempre deprisa, para poder llegar a tiempo a los informativos de television, para ser los primeros en ofrecer la ultima ofensiva o la primera batalla... Pero, aun asi, muchos de ellos vuelven una y otra vez, moviendose por todo el globo en una procesion interminable al ritmo en que las guerras se desplazan por la Tierra. Vietnam, Beirut, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Iran, Kuwait, Bosnia... Viajeros incansables por tierras arrasadas, por ruinas humeantes, por culturas destruidas en aras de cualquier idea gloriosa. Arturo ecrez-Reverte, uno de esos reporteros de guerra, periodista, novelista reconocido y galardonado, da en el presente libro algunas de las claves para comprender por que estos personajes necesitan jugarse la vida dia a dia, hora tras hora, para poder sentirse vivos. Mezclando realidad y ficcion, Perez-Reverte consigue un texto duro, cruel unas veces, tierno otras, pero, sobre todo, un texto que no deja indiferente.
