Lapidarium es una fascinante recopilación de reflexiones, notas de diario y análisis político-económicos del célebre reportero Ryszard Kapuściński. A través de un mosaico de fragmentos que recorren desde encuentros con intelectuales hasta observaciones cotidianas en lugares tan diversos como Abu Dhabi o Berlín, el autor ofrece una mirada aguda sobre la historia contemporánea y la condición humana. En esta obra, Kapuściński se aleja del reportaje convencional para construir un 'lapidario' de pensamientos donde advierte sobre lo fútil y lo marginal en la comunicación moderna. Es una pieza esencial para entender la visión del mundo de uno de los periodistas más influyentes del siglo XX, combinando la profundidad de la meditación filosófica con la agilidad de la narrativa periodística.
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".
