The Dispossessed

Journalist and writer Alfredo Molano had in-depth experience with Colombian guerrilla history. His books are a must-read in the quest to understand Colombian conflicts throughout the last few decades, with a focus on how they affected the most vulnerable people in rural areas. While he was exiled in Europe to avoid the paramilitary menaces, he wrote The Dispossessed: Chronicles Of The Desterrados Of Colombia. Beyond its eloquent title, Molano confessed in a very touching way how he felt as an exiled person.
