Publisher's summary
San Fernando. Última parada podría ser una novela de terror. Lo más terrorífico es que no lo es.
En este libro se cuenta la historia de una pequeña ciudad, con una terminal de autobuses en la que desaparecen los pasajeros. La mayoría son hombres jóvenes que viajan a Estados Unidos en busca de un mejor futuro. Van ligeros de equipaje y de dinero. Cada amanecer, cuando un camión llega a la parada, son bajados por la fuerza, llevados a brechas y asesinados. Por error, por capricho, porquesí. Porque los asesinos tienen permiso. Luego son arrojados a fosas clandestinas. Cuando en 2011 se descubrieron las tumbas, el gobierno reconoció los restos de 193 personas. Y los volvió a ocultar. Culpó a Los Zetas de las matanzas, pero no investigó las complicidades.
Este libro es un relato coral de esas masacres; en sus páginas hablan las víctimas, familiares, testigos, funcionarios; la autora nos conduce, como el Virgilio de Dante, por los círculos del horror y la desdicha, pero también de la esperanza y la alegríacuando las familias recuperan el cuerpo del ser querido ausente o se unen contra la maquinaria que desaparece personas. La obra nos guía por un sitio tomado por la delincuencia organizada que actúa a la luz del día, con autoridades que los encubren o que voltean a otro lado para acentuar el silencio que deja la impunidad.
En este país, nos dice Marcela Turati, la política de Estado es la simulación, el ocultamiento. San Fernando es el epicentro de una lógica criminal que la periodista revela: una población en el desamparo donde los crímenes son autorizados y las consecuencias de la “guerra contra el narco” cobran cientos de víctimas. Al desnudo quedan los mecanismos de la impunidad que permiten el horror que continúa hasta ahora.

No es una pandilla, no es una célula de un grupo mayor ni tampoco una banda doméstica, sino un auténtico cártel que logró apoderarse del centro del país, justo en las narices de las más altas autoridades. ¿Cómo lo hizo? Ejerciendo una violencia como nunca se había visto, con el liderazgo de un hombre del que poco o nada se sabía, con una red de lavado poderosísima y la apatía de dos administraciones capitalinas.

The ancient Toltecs believed that life, as we perceive it, is a dream. We each live in our own personal dream, and these come together to form the dream of the planet, or the world in which we live. Problems arise when our perception of the dream becomes clouded with negativity, drama, and judgment (of ourselves and others), because it's in these moments of suffering that we have forgotten that we are the architects of our own reality and we have the power to change our dream if we choose.

Some people bounce back in response to setbacks; others break. We often think that these responses are hardwired, but fortunately this is not the case. Stoicism offers us an alternative approach. Plumbing the wisdom of one of the most popular and successful schools of thought from ancient Rome, philosopher William B. Irvine teaches us to turn any challenge on its head. The Stoic Challenge, then, is the ultimate guide to improving your quality of life through tactics developed by ancient Stoics, from Marcus Aurelius and Seneca to Epictetus.
