*Premio Ortega y Gasset de Periodismo a la Trayectoria profesional 2023*

40 años de periodismo narrativo condensados en una obra magistral; Lacrónica reafirma a Caparrós como una de las voces imprescindibles de la literatura en nuestro idioma.

«El mejor cronista actual de América Latina: un soberbio entrevistador, un viajerodotado de cultura enciclopédica y de una fina ironía. --Roberto Herrscher, La Vanguardia

Lacrónica sería un «grandes éxitos de Caparrós, una compilación de sus mejores crónicas, si no fuera porque allí, además, el autor cuenta su historia en el periodismo y reflexiona sobre cómo escribe lo que escribe, cómo piensa lo que piensa, cómo se hace lo que hace. Entre recuerdos de su primer jefe, Rodolfo Walsh, y de su último maestro, Tomás Eloy Martínez, Caparrós da una lección de escritura de la no ficción que las facultades de periodismo de España y América Latina ahora emplean para enseñar esta materia.

Todo lo que usted siempre -o nunca- quiso saber sobre Lacrónica, ese extraño género del periodismo que empezó a poner por escrito el continente americano y tiene el don de permitirse la duda, brilla en esta obra que, casi sin querer, se volvió ineludible.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Ortega y Gasset Journalism Lifetime Achievement Award 2023.

Forty years of narrative journalism condensed in a masterpiece. Thechronicle reaffirms Caparrós as one of the key voices in literature in the Spanish language.

"The best chronicler in Latin America today, a superb interviewer, a traveler gifted with encyclopedic knowledge and a smooth irony." --Roberto Herrscher, La Vanguardia

Thechronicle would be a "greatest hits" by Caparrós, a compilation of his best chronicles, if it were not for the fact that the author tells his own story in journalism and reflects on how he writes what he writes, how he thinks what he thinks, how to do what he does. Among memories of his first boss, Rodolfo Walsh, and his last teacher, Tomás Eloy Martínez, Caparrós gives a non-fiction writing lesson that every school of journalism in Spain and Latin America now uses to teach the subject.

Everything you always--or never--wanted to know about Thechronicle, that strange genre in journalism that began putting the American continent down on paper and has the gift of affording doubt, shines in this work which, almost unwillingly, became inescapable.
