About the Book

"Lo intenté mucho y no conseguí una explicación. Después de 40 días de búsqueda por parte de los militares mejor entrenados del mundo en supervivencia y rastreo de jungla, los cuatro niños vinieron a aparecer a escasos diez metros del lugar donde un chamán indígena dijo que estarían.

Todo ocurrió bajo la influencia del yagé, una bebida sagrada que, de acuerdo con las culturas amazónicas, cura los males y brinda un sueño visionario que por unos minutos permite internarse en el fondo de la mente o viajar con libertad en el espacio y el tiempo.

En las entrevistas para hacer este libro, el presidente de Colombia, Gustavo Petro, me contó que en su juventud probó el yagé en dos ocasiones. La primera vez descubrió que el cuidado de la naturaleza debía ser la principal razón de su vida. La segunda le entregó la estremecedora visión de su propia muerte.

Esta es también la historia de unos niños maltratados que encontraron la oportunidad de ser felices detrás de una tragedia; la de unas comunidades indígenas que viven en la pobreza, pero que son dueñas del gigantesco pulmón que puede salvar la especie humana; la de un general que ganó la batalla más importante de su vida sin disparar un solo tiro y la de un perro rastreador que ubicó las huellas de los niños sobrevivientes, pero no pudo hallar el rumbo para salir de la selva".

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

"I tried really hard and I didn't get an explanation. After a forty-day search performed by some of the world's best-trained soldiers in the matter of survival and jungle tracking, the four missing children happened to appear barely 30 feet away from where the shaman said they would be.

It all happened under the influence of yage, a sacred drink that, according to Amazonian cultures, heals all illnesses and gives you dream-like visions for a few minutes, allowing you to enter the depths of your mind or travel freely through time and space.

In the interviews done for the book, the President of Colombia, Gustavo Petro, told me that he tried yage in his youth on two separate occasions. The first time he learned that caring for nature should be his main reason to live. The second time he received the chilling vision of his own death.

This is also the story of abused children who found a chance for happiness following a tragedy; of indigenous communities living in poverty, and yet owners of the giant lung that could save humanity; of a general who won the most crucial battle of his life without firing a single shot, and the story of a tracking dog that picked up the footprints of the surviving children, but couldn't find its way out of the jungle."
