En 'Los cínicos no sirven para este oficio', Ryszard Kapuściński reflexiona sobre el periodismo, abordando sus desafíos, normas y la responsabilidad de los intelectuales en la información actual. El autor plantea preguntas cruciales: ¿Cómo narrar la pobreza, el hambre y las guerras? ¿Es esencial la ética para un buen periodista? ¿Qué relación existe entre la realidad y la narración, y cómo navegar entre la búsqueda de la verdad y las presiones del poder? El libro incluye una entrevista de A. Semplici sobre la emancipación de África y un diálogo con John Berger sobre 'ver, comprender y contar'.
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".
