El mundo de hoy: Autorretrato de un reportero es un libro del reconocido autor Ryszard Kapuscinski. Esta obra, compilada por Agata Orzeszek, ofrece una profunda reflexión sobre el mundo contemporáneo a través de una selección de ensayos, conferencias y entrevistas. El libro se divide en tres partes, explorando el pasado del autor, su visión del periodismo y la literatura, y su análisis de la sociedad actual. Con un epílogo que recoge las declaraciones de Kapuscinski tras el 11-M en Madrid, este libro es una ventana al pensamiento de uno de los grandes reporteros de nuestro tiempo.

Ryszard Kapuściński was a Polish journalist, photographer and author. He received many prestigious awards and was considered a candidate for the Nobel Prize in Literature. Kapuściński's personal journals in book form attracted both controversy and admiration for blurring the conventions of reportage with the allegory and magical realism of literature. He was the Communist-era Polish Press Agency's only correspondent in Africa during decolonization, and also worked in South America and Asia. Between 1956 and 1981 he reported on 27 revolutions and coups, until he was fired because of his support for the pro-democracy Solidarity movement in his native country. He was celebrated by other practitioners of the genre. The acclaimed Italian reportage-writer Tiziano Terzani, Colombian writer Gabriel García Márquez, and Chilean writer Luis Sepúlveda accorded him the title "Maestro".
