¿Qué pasa si en un país inestable aparece un líder inestable? Este libro quería ser una radiografía de la nueva derecha que hoy tiene como líder a Javier Milei. Pero con el correr de los meses, de las entrevistas, de los encuentros off the record, de seguir facturas, sellos y papeleríos, el trabajo pasó de ser uno de campo con ribetes casi académicos a un thriller tragicómico, a medio camino entre los policiales negros de Raymond Chandler y La conjura de los necios de John Kennedy Toole. Los secretos místicos de Milei fueron la primera revelación que obligaron a cambiar los planes.

Creo que nunca había estado en una situación peor. Me explico: me han tirado al Nilo, estoy atada de pies y manos, y me estoy ahogando. Y, por si esto fuera poco, un cocodrilo enorme se acerca a mí. La tía Paula pensó que pasar unos días en El Cairo sería divertido. El plan era ver el Despertar del Nilo, un ritual único que se celebra cada doscientos años. Pero alguien ha robado la estatua de Hapi, el dios del río, y ha desatado las plagas de Egipto. Si no recupero la figura a tiempo, el destino de la familia Black (y el de toda la humanidad) estará en peligro. ¡Glups!

The relationship between Judaism and Christianity has been acrimonious throughout most of history.
