About the Book

Forget everything you thought you knew about Galapagos. Behind and beneath nature's laboratory lies an excruciating human history and a nebulous heart of darkness. In the years following World War ll, Galapagos was home to a death camp. Hundreds were banished to the islands and disappeared into the maw of a macabre punishment project, their remains unceremoniously dumped into a lava tube. In this historical essay, the authors and their motley crew set out on a hunt for feral pigs to the site of the most notorious encampment, now overgrown by the Galapagos National Park. As they descend into an abyss of human cruelty, they learn a remarkable story of unprecedented survival and escape. This is a travelogue of their journey within a journey within a journey. Olvida todo lo que creías saber sobre Galápagos. Detrás y debajo del laboratorio de la naturaleza hay una historia humana insoportable y un nebuloso corazón de oscuridad. En los años posteriores a la Segunda Guerra Mundial, Galápagos fue el hogar de un campo de exterminio. Cientos fueron desterrados a las islas y desaparecieron en las fauces de un macabro proyecto de castigo, y sus restos fueron arrojados sin ceremonias a un tubo de lava. En este ensayo histórico, los autores y su equipo variopinto se lanzaron a cazar cerdos salvajes al sitio del campamento más famoso, ahora cubierto por el Parque Nacional Galápagos. A medida que descienden a un abismo de crueldad humana, aprenden una historia extraordinaria de supervivencia y escape sin precedentes. Este es un cuaderno de viaje de su viaje dentro de un viaje dentro de un viaje.
