Idioma/Language: Español. La irrelevancia es el sentimiento de los que no importan. De aquellos que sufren nuevas formas de explotación en un mundo de creciente desigualdad, regido por la confianza ciega en las finanzas, la capacidad de computación y la inteligencia artificial. La irrelevancia funciona también como una fina línea. Traza una frontera difusa y apenas perceptible: mientras en un rascacielos de la City un programador diseña un algoritmo, abajo, sobre el polvo del asfalto, un rider pedalea a las órdenes del código, un usuario accede a la noticia falsa recomendada y alguien se juega la vida al saltar una valla de espino atraído por la promesa de paz y seguridad. Los irrelevantes es un libro en movimiento, un gran reportaje que recorre Trípoli, Shenzhen, Hong Kong, Madrid, Los Ángeles, Adís Abeba, Kigali, Palmira y Londres en busca de voces e historias que nos expliquen el presente. Reflejo de una época hiperveloz y caótica, sus decenas de protagonistas muestran la complejidad de esta jungla global en la que la responsabilidad de la violencia y el hambre quedan diluidas. Donde las consecuencias de ciertas decisiones ocurren a miles de kilómetros de distancia y los algoritmos que rigen las grandes corporaciones operan como cajas negras cuyo funcionamiento ignoran incluso quienes las crearon. Guillermo Abril ha compuesto un caleidoscopio contemporáneo en el que las escenas y acontecimientos se suceden a un ritmo frenético. Entre otros muchos, aquí se encuentran los jóvenes europeos que partían rumbo a Siria para combatir en la yihad, los charlatanes tecnoutópicos que preconizan la muerte de la muerte, los migrantes explotados en los invernaderos almerienses y las praderas de ordenadores en los que se cifraron los productos financieros que detonaron la crisis del 2008. Una crónica periodística de nuestro tiempo que viaja de un punto a otro del planeta para tratar de comprenderlo. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente. No aceptamos pedidos con destino a Ceuta y Melilla.…
