Description

El relato maravillosamente escrito de los hermanos Martínez d'Aubuisson sobre la vida y la muerte del temible pandillero El Niño de Hollywood, basado en horas y horas de entrevistas con él y sus allegados, revela incomparablemente la dinámica subyacente del fenómeno de las pandillas centroamericanas de una manera detallada y perspicaz.-Dennis Rodgers ¿Qué tiene que ver la administración Reagan con que un pandillero centroamericano haya asesinado a más de 50 personas en su país? ¿Qué relación hay entre la ciudad de Los Ángeles de los años 70 y el violento occidente salvadoreño del nuevo siglo? ¿Cómo un grupo de migrantes adictos al heavy metal terminó pariendo a la pandilla más reconocida del mundo? ¿Es una tontería explicar un genocidio indígena, los procesos del café en El Salvador y la guerra civil de 12 años para entender a un asesino de la Mara Salvatrucha 13? ¿Cómo puede un Estado como el salvadoreño quedar en deuda con un despiadado sicario? Hay muchas preguntas y muchas respuestas. Una de ellas es ésta, la vida de Miguel Ángel Tobar, El Niño de la clica Hollywood Locos Salvatrucha de la MS-13. Incluso hay preguntas que quedan abiertas: ¿cómo es posible que, décadas después, el gobierno estadunidense encabezado por Donald Trump no haya entendido nada de esto?. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION "The Martinez brothers' marvelously written account about the life and death of a fearsome gang member "The Hollywood Kid", based on numerous interviews with him and people close to him. In a very detailed and insightful way, the book reveals the underlying dynamics of the phenomena that are Central American gangs." - Dennis Rodgers What does the Reagan administration have to do with a gang member killing over 50 people in his country? What is the link between the Los Angeles of the 70s and the violence erupting in El Salvador in the new century? Would it be odd that in order to understand a killer from the MS-13 gang, we would need to explain an indigenous genocide, the processes of coffee making in El Salvador, and the 12-year civil war? Why would a country like El Salvador be indebted to a ruthless assassin? There are many questions and many answers; one key mystery is precisely this one, the life of Miguel Angel Tobar, the kid from the Hollywood Locos clique of the MS-13. There are however, many questions still unanswered like, why so many decades later the US government, led by Donald Trump, has not been able to comprehend any of this?
