Synopsis "Que te Den, mr. Wonderfool (in Spanish)"

Este libro no es para princesas. Es para niñas que han crecido y se han quitado la venda de los ojos, cansadas de esperar a su príncipe azul mientras las tratan como objetos en la discoteca. Es para todos los que ya no pueden creerse los mensajes demasiado optimistas de una taza ni los posados de Instagram. Mississippi dirige su crítica contra las dos caras del sistema: el machismo cotidiano (en la calle, en las letras del reguetón) y el consumismo (en las re-des sociales, en la publicidad, en la cultura pop). Ha reescrito el cuento desde la autocrítica más honesta, desde el lugar donde convergen las dos caras del sistema: el cuerpo de la mujer. Un poemario libre, fresco y muy divertido. Un libro multimedia, ilustrado por un buen puñado de artistas emergentes: ESCANEA LOS CÓDIGOS QR DE CADA POEMA Y DISFRUTA EN TU MÓVIL DE LOS MEJORES VÍDEOS DE MISSISSIPPI. Una experiencia poética total. Ilustraciones a cargo de RAMIN STUDIO – ANSORU – LAUREN EAVLE – LAURA BONO – SARA LIKEGREEN – MUSHY. INCLUYE SU POEMA VIRAL SOBRE DISNEY CON MÁS DE 8 MILLONES DE VISUALIZACIONES.

Walter Benjamin was a prominent philosopher, literary critic, and art and history theorist born in Berlin, Germany. His work and critical thinking have had a profound influence on 20th century cultural studies.
Benjamin was born into a wealthy Jewish family and grew up in an intellectually stimulating environment. From an early age, he showed an interest in literature, music, and art.
In the 1920s, after serving in the German army during World War I, he joined the Frankfurt School, a circle of German intellectuals and social critics interested in transforming Marxist ideas. There, he met other thinkers like Theodor Adorno and Max Horkheimer who were major influences on his work and worldview.
Throughout his life, Benjamin was also deeply interested in politics and social issues. During the years of the Weimar Republic, he actively participated in the cultural and literary field. However, the rise of Nazism to power in 1933 forced him to leave Germany. He first went into exile in Paris and after the French occupation, Benjamin tried to escape to Spain to embark towards the United States, but was detained at the French-Spanish border. Faced with the imminent threat of being handed over to the German authorities, the author decided to end his life.
