Every now and then, someone lifts the veil off politics and exposes it completely. That's what Miguel Ángel Pichetto does in this book, perhaps the most acute and straightforward Argentine political leader who, after an extensive career in the PJ, crossed the line to become Macri's vice-presidential candidate. He embraced capitalism, another irreverence for a Perón loyalist.

Driven by Carlos M. Reymundo Roberts' probing questions, the most incisive voice in political journalism, Pichetto delves into the intricacies of power. He speaks about corruption, his disputes with Néstor and Cristina Kirchner, Nisman, the Pope, the suburbs, uncontrolled immigration, reveals the mistakes made by Macrismo in the 2019 electoral campaign, offers a fresh perspective on the AMIA attack, and brutally analyzes the current government.

He asserts that for Argentina not to become an unviable country, it must eradicate its recurring fiscal deficits and the "culture of poverty," a concept he introduced to define the political use of the poor.

This book is a treatise on power, a tale of the tumultuous recent decades in which he was a frontline protagonist. It's an unvarnished portrayal of the country, a voice of alarm, but also a shout of hope.
