Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Tras No digas nada y El imperio del dolor, Patrick Radden Keefe explora los limites, a menudo imperceptibles, entre lo legal y lo ilegal, a traves de doce retratos reales protagonizados por maleantes de medio mundo. Keefe ha hecho carrera sumergiendose en personajes fascinantes, en eso es el mejor. [.] En Maleantes regresa con su altisimo rigor periodistico y la misma pasion de siempre por desvelar misterios, con un resultado inconfundible. -New York Times Book ReviewKeefe es un narrador virtuoso. -The Washington Post Con el fascinante estilo que le caracteriza, Patrick Radden Keefe ofrece en este libro una compleja panoramica del lado oscuro del ser humano. Aqui retrata, entre otros personajes, al traficante de armas Monzer al-Kassar, apodado el principe de Marbella y perseguido incansablemente por un agente de la D.E.A., a la controvertida abogada del diablo que lucha contra la pena de muerte representando a los peores criminales, al Chapo Guzman y su vida tras huir de una prision de alta seguridad, o al celebre delincuente holandes William Holleeder y los esfuerzos de su propia hermana para lograr su encarcelacion. Maleantes recoge doce perfiles de estafadores, truhanes, asesinos y rebeldes, gente que nada a contracorriente y cuya vida excepcional, para bien y para mal, invita al lector a reflexionar sobre temas como la esencia del mal, del poder, del crimen y de la corrupcion, pero tambien sobre el coraje de quienes decidieron enfrentarse a ellos.ENGLISH DESCRIPTIONNEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER From the award-winning author of Empire of Pain and Say Nothingand one of the most decorated journalists of our timetwelve enthralling true stories of skulduggery and intrigue. "An excellent collection of Keefe's detective work, and a fine introduction to his illuminating writing." NPR Fast-paced.Keefe is a virtuoso storyteller." The Washington Post Patrick Radden Keefe has garnered prizes ranging from the National Magazine Award to the Orwell Prize to the National Book Critics Circle Award for his meticulously reported, hypnotically engaging work on the many ways people behave badly. Rogues brings together a dozen of his most celebrated articles from The New Yorker. As Keefe says in his preface, They reflect on some of my abiding preoccupations: crime and corruption, secrets and lies, the permeable membrane separating licit and illicit worlds, the bonds of family, the power of denial. Keefe brilliantly explores the intricacies of forging $150,000 vintage wines, examines whether a whistleblower who dared to expose money laundering at a Swiss bank is a hero or a fabulist, spends time in Vietnam with Anthony Bourdain, chronicles the quest to bring down a cheerful international black-market arms merchant, and profiles a passionate death penalty attorney who represents the worst of the worst, among other bravura works of literary journalism. The appearance of his byline in The New Yorker is always an event. And collected, here, for the first-time, readers can see his work form an enthralling but deeply human portrait of criminals and rascals, as well as those who stand up against them.
