In this unsparing exploration of one of the most powerful Americans of the 20th century, accomplished historian Marc Aronson unmasks the man behind the Bureau: his tangled family history and personal relationships; his own need for secrecy, deceit, and control; and the broad trends in American society that shaped his world. Hoover may have given America the security it wanted, but the secrets he knew gave him—and the Bureau—all the power he wanted.

Dueña de un estilo propio, Magalí Tajes combina textos de ficción y de no ficción: poemas, cuentos, reflexiones, anécdotas para reír y también para conmoverse. Caos es un audiolibro difícil de clasificar, que puede escucharse en cualquier orden. ¿Cuántos muros se tienen que saltar para llegar a un puente? ¿Cuántos universos hay que dejar morir para que nazca el propio? Caos. Una fiesta, varias habitaciones, tres tiempos: pasado errático, presente mágico, futuro incierto. Puertas que abren mundos y cierran miedos.
