«Un nuevo mundo feliz» is Cristovam Buarque's personal dictionary, published by Taurus in paperback (288 pages, in Spanish).
A personal dictionary that brings together terms arising from globalization, reinterprets familiar notions and proposes neologisms such as globocaust, modernomads or malmigrants. Buarque reflects on how the 21st century wears down the meaning of words and warns of a «happy world» more perverse than Huxley's, offering a critical reading of contemporary language.
The work belongs to the Pensamiento collection from Taurus. The Spanish text is a translation from the original Portuguese.
A work for readers interested in philosophy, politics and the impact of globalization on language.
