Rafael Osío Cabrices’s TWILIGHT IN VENEZUELA now available in English from Algonquin
We are delighted to announce the English-language publication of Rafael Osío Cabrices’s Venezuela, Memorias de un futuro perdido by Algonquin Books
In this deeply personal and rigorously reported account, Osío Cabrices traces the extraordinary transformation of his country—from the Venezuela he knew growing up, a modern, oil-rich democracy, through the rise of Hugo Chávez and the gradual erosion of democratic institutions, to the profound crisis that has reshaped the country and its people.
Drawing on his experiences as a journalist and on his journeys back to Venezuela to visit family and friends, Osío Cabrices offers an intimate view of the people living through these historic changes. The result is both a compelling account of Venezuela's recent history and a deeply human reflection on what happens when history unexpectedly turns your world upside down.
As the publisher puts it, Twilight in Venezuela is “a warm, nuanced, unforgettable conversation with a deeply informed friend” — one that challenges the myths and misinformation surrounding Venezuela and brings the country's modern history into vivid focus.
