Nothing and no one. The voices of earthquake

Elena Poniatowska

NON FICTION, 2006. PLANETA NEW EDITION, 2023. 468 PÁGINAS.

The 19th and 20th of September 1985 were days of great pain for the residents of Mexico City. The earth shook and the reverberations ransacked the great city without mercy. Death and destruction. Countless missing. Buildings destroyed. When the tragedy stuck, the government hid. But then the citizenry came to the fore with help from the rest of the country and the international community. This book is a precise account of a tragedy that brought out the courage of ordinary people on the street.
The Elena Poniatowska Library gathers together the fiction, essays and journalism of an author whose discipline and empathy are perfectly suited to telling the story of the country's great and tragic moments. In Nothing, No One, she chronicles the voices of those who were able to overcome great adversity and offer lessons for the future.
