About the Book
Uno de los mejores libros del año según Kirkus Reviews y la Biblioteca Pública de Nueva York. Esta adaptación para jóvenes del aclamado bestseller #1 del New York Times, Just Mercy –es también una película protagonizada por Michael B. Jordan, Jamie Foxx y Brie Larson y un documental de HBO.
LA JUSTICIA ES LA VERDADERA ANTAGONISTA DE LA POBREZA, asegura Bryan Stevenson, quien ha dedicado su vida a liberar personas injustamente encarceladas. Este libro es un poderoso testimonio de cómo el esfuerzo de un solo ser humano, el suyo, puede marcar la diferencia.
Las historias reales que comparte Stevenson provocan ira y tristeza, y arrojan luz sobre los fallos del sistema judicial estadounidense. Pero también ofrecen esperanzas porque muestran su compromiso con los ciudadanos pobres y vulnerables. Sobre todo, muestran que un cambio es posible.
"Un collage profundamente emotivo de historias reales... Una lectura obligatoria." -Kirkus Reviews, reseña destacada.
"Compasiva y convincente, la narrativa de Stevenson es también inolvidable." -Booklist, reseña destacada.
