«El libro que necesitaba leer este año. Un viaje de pesadilla a las entrañas de un sistema ante el que ya no somos cuerpo, solo fuerza de trabajo. Una lectura que nos da las palabras precisas para nombrar lo que nos enferma y concita la rabia que necesitamos para, de una vez, romperlo todo». —Aixa de la Cruz
«Un relato clarividente, inteligentísimo, vivisección de lo que es ser hoy mujer y hombre, por separado y simultáneamente». —Agustín Fernández Mallo
A sus cuarenta y cuatro años, la mujer que protagoniza esta novela se ha convertido en un auténtico «hombre» de negocios: gana doscientos mil euros al año y ha modelado su cuerpo, su tiempo, su lenguaje y hasta sus relaciones sexuales para conseguir tener tanto poder como un hombre, ser aceptada en sus círculos, ganarse su total confianza y convertirse, por fin, en uno de ellos. En la cima de su carrera profesional, cuando lleva años viviendo, pensando y ganando exactamente lo mismo que sus colegas masculinos, echa la vista atrás y observa su metamorfosis, desde la primera vez que pensó que había nacido en el bando equivocado hasta el momento en que comprende que su éxito profesional es también el resultado de una monstruosa transformación personal.
El último hombre blanco puede leerse como la crónica de una infiltrada en las costuras del mercado laboral o como el testimonio de un hombre poderoso y opaco que por primera vez toma la palabra dispuesto a decir la verdad. La prosa incisiva y lúcida de Nuria Labari sirve para contar la historia de una mujer que creyó que necesitaba escalar una montaña y de cómo, una vez que consiguió llegar a la cumbre, deseó hacerla estallar.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
“An enlightening novel about power. Not about how to achieve power or how to hold on to it, although that too. But rather why we should destroy it and change it fucking once and for all.” —Juan Tallón
“The book I needed to read this year. A nightmarish journey to the core of a system we no longer belong to, but just work for. A read that gives us the right words to name that which makes us sick and arouses the kind of anger we need to tear it down at last.” —Aixa de la Cruz
“A clairvoyant and incredibly intelligent tale, a vivisection of what it means to be a woman and a man today, both separate and simultaneously.” —Agustín Fernández Mallo
At forty-four, the female protagonist of this novel has become an authentic business “man”: she earns two hundred thousand euros a year, has modeled her body, her time, her language, and even her sexual relations to achieve as much power as a man does, to be accepted in their circles, to earn their full trust, and finally become one of them. At the peak of her professional career, when she’s already been living, thinking, and earning exactly the same as her male colleagues for years, she takes a look back to her metamorphosis since the first time she thought she had been born part of the wrong team, up to the moment she understood that her professional success was also result of a monstruous personal transformation.
The Last White Man can be read as the chronicle of an infiltrate at the seams of the labor market, or as the testimony of a powerful and opaque man who takes the floor for the first time, willing to tell the truth. Nuria Labari’s incisive and lucid prose helps tell the story of a woman who thought she needed to climb a mountain, and how, when she finally reached the summit, wanted to blow it up.

10. dispute resolution
The European Commission provides a platform for online dispute resolution (ODR), which can be found here: https://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr/. Consumers have the possibility to use this platform for the settlement of their disputes.
To settle disputes arising from a contractual relationship with a consumer or whether such a contractual relationship exists at all, we are obliged to participate in dispute resolution proceedings before a consumer arbitration board. The responsible body is the Universalschlichtungsstelle des Bundes am Zentrum für Schlichtung e.V., Straßburger Straße 8, 77694 Kehl am Rhein, www.verbraucher-schlichter.de. We will participate in a dispute resolution procedure before this body.
11. protection of minors
If your order includes goods whose sale is subject to age restrictions, we ensure that the customer has reached the required minimum age by using a reliable procedure involving a personal identity and age check. The delivery person will hand over the goods only after the age check has been carried out and only to the customer in person.
Delivery to packing stations is not possible in this case.
