About the Book

El canás, o francotirador, es uno de los personajes ubicuos e inevitables de la guerra en Siria. Para la población civil, es imperativo tenerlo en cuenta: sobrevivir depende de saber dónde está actuando. Viejas mantas colgadas en calles y avenidas no están ahí por detallismo decorativo: sirven para obstaculizar la visión de los que esperan para matar. La cotidianidad se rige por evadir tiros, salvarse de las bombas y arreglárselas para, a pesar de todo, encontrar algo de humor para seguir siendo humanos. El autor nos entrega una crónica desde los frentes de batalla que nos ayuda a conocer a estos combatientes, ponerles rostro y espíritu a los actores del conflicto e imágenes al padecimiento diario de la violencia. Apoyado en una narrativa íntima y veloz, es un testimonio impactante y necesario para no sólo entender, sino también sentir la tragedia siria. Junto a un periodista húngaro y otro vasco, Témoris Grecko fue objeto de un secuestro por parte de un grupo armado. El recuento detallado de lo ocurrido, con reflexiones y aspectos que no han sido publicados, forma parte de esta historia.
