In the span of a generation, oil-rich Venezuela spiraled into a dire state of economic collapse. Reporter Paula Ramón experienced the crisis firsthand as her middle-class family saw their quality of life deteriorate. Public services no longer functioned. Money lost its value. Her mother couldn’t afford to buy food, which was increasingly scarce. The once-prosperous country fell into ruin. Like many others, Ramón’s family struggled to survive each day in their beloved city, Maracaibo—until, one by one, they each made the unbearable choice to leave the home they love.

Es común que los pueblos tumben los monumentos de héroes antiguos. Pero, para Nicolás Pernett, el problema no está en las estatuas, sino en los pedestales, donde se escriben las exageradas alabanzas que elevan a las figuras del pasado por encima del resto de mortales. En este riguroso y divertido libro de historia de Colombia, el autor nos invita a bajar del pedestal de la memoria a los presidentes de la nación, cuestionando su legado con datos que suelen omitirse en la historia tradicional, desde antes de la Independencia hasta nuestros días.
