A Luminous Republic2017
(República luminosa)
by Andrés Barba
What has to happen so that we are forced to redefine our idea of childhood? The appearance of thirty-two violent children of unknown origin completely disrupts the life of San Cristóbal, a small tropical city encased between the jungle and the river. Twenty years later, one of its protagonists wrote this luminous Republic, a chronicle woven of facts, evidence and rumors about how the city was forced to reformulate not only its idea of order and violence but even civilization during that year and a half in which, until his death, the children took the city.
