Книга: Caracas (Caparros M., Paolini R.) ; La Fabrica, 2020

It is a private look at a place with history, and with a present and future which are being built and rebuilt with astonishing tenacity. Caracas is more than a messy city; it is an homage to paradox. It is made of cement, steel and glass yet ensconced in an extraordinary geographical location surrounded by lush nature with a bevy of mountains, valleys and rivers the city has managed to maintain a unique personality and presence among the largest Latin American cities. This book entails recognition of a place with a story to tell, which is as unknown to its inhabitants as it is to its visitors.
