Un trébol de cuatro hojas

Un recuerdo puede diluirse con el tiempo y dejar sólo la sensación, la idea, el concepto. Un recuerdo puede borrarse a punta de calmantes, ansiolíticos, antidepresivos, somníferos, terapias, exceso de trabajo, mucha vida social y ocupaciones, pero hay cosas que se anclan en la memoria y que permanecen ahí esperando que uno tenga el valor suficiente para bucear en ellas.

"Carefully researched study of the economic impact of the Chilean occupation of Lima during the War of the Pacific. Looks at banking and the roles of emerging Spanish and Chinese merchants. Concludes that the economic 'ruin' of Lima by the end of the occupation was nearly complete. Suggests that the economic issues of the Chilean occupation were so profound that they played a significant role in delaying the final settlement of the War of the Pacific claims until 1929"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.

"An interesting collection of speeches and writings from 1990-93 by the influential, but frequently embattled, 39-year-old leader of the moderate right-wing Renovación Nacional party. Of particular interest are his thoughts on the transition to democracy, human rights abuses and national reconciliation, economic and political development, and developments within the rival Christian Democratic party"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 57.
