Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now a major motion picture! Pablo Escobar was one of the most terrifying criminal minds of the last century. In the decade before his death in 1993, he reigned as the head of a multinational cocaine industry and brought the Colombian state to its knees, killing thousands of politicians, media personalities, police, and unarmed citizens. In the 1980s, Virginia Vallejo was Colombia’s most famous television celebrity: a top-rated anchorwoman and a twice-divorced socialite who had been courted by the country’s four wealthiest men. In 1982, she interviewed Pablo Escobar on her news program, and soon after, they began a discreet—albeit stormy—romantic relationship. During their five-year affair, Escobar would show Vallejo the vulnerability of presidents, senators, and military leaders seeking to profit from the drug trade. From Vallejo’s privileged perspective and her ability to navigate the global corridors of wealth and high society, Escobar gained the insight to master his manipulation ofColombia’s powerful elite and media. Loving Pablo, Hating Escobar chronicles the birth of Colombia’s drug cartels: the kidnappers, the guerilla groups, and the paramilitary organizations. It is, above everything, a great love story—a deep and painful journeythrough a forbidden relationship—that gives us an intimate vision of thelegendary drug baron who left his mark on Colombia, Latin America, the United States, and the world forever.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Em julho de 2006, um avião da Divisão de Combate ao Tráfico de Drogas dos Estados Unidos retirou Virginia Vallejo da Colômbia. Sua vida estava em perigo por ter concordado em depor como testemunha-chave num dos processos mais importantes da história de seu país: o assassinato do presidente Luis Carlos Galán e de mais outras cem pessoas, entre eles magistrados, guerrilheiros e civis. Vinte anos antes, Virginia era modelo bem-sucedida e apresentadora de um dos programas de TV mais populares da Colômbia. Em 1982 conheceu Pablo Escobar, na época um político de 33 anos que nos bastidores era senhor de um mundo de riquezas inimagináveis geradas principalmente pelo tráfico de cocaína, que por sua vez financiava projetos de caridade e campanhas de candidatos à presidência. Amando Pablo, odiando Escobar é o relato sincero de uma história de amor que logo se transformou em um conto de horror e vingança. Virginia acompanha de perto a evolução de uma das mentes criminosas mais sinistras e engenhosas de nossos tempos, retratando a infinita capacidade de Pablo de infundir terror e corrupção, seus vínculos tanto com o poder paralelo quanto com o Estado, os assassinatos de candidatos à presidência e seu envolvimento profundo com a guerra que devastou a Colômbia. Além disso, Virginia Vallejo compõe um relato sem meias-verdades sobre a vida íntima do lendário rei do tráfico internacional de drogas em uma narrativa corajosa, que não poupa detalhes, repleta de glamour e decadência, incluindo informações sobre Pablo Escobar, sua intimidade e seus crimes nunca antes reveladas.

Download or read book Amando a Pablo, odiando a Escobar written by Virginia Vallejo and published by Ediciones Península. This book was released on 2017-10-24 with total page 471 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pablo Escobar es quizás la mente criminal más aterradora y compleja del último siglo. Para acabar con él en 1993, fueron necesarios cientos de agentes estadounidenses y un comando especial de la policía de Colombia, entrenado con el único fin de darle muerte. En el decenio anterior, había puesto de rodillas al Estado colombiano y asesinado a docenas de personalidades de la política y los medios de comunicación, casi mil policías y miles de ciudadanos inermes. También había acumulado una fortuna estimada en 3.000 millones de dólares de la época, producto de su reinado al frente de la industria de la cocaína. A principios de los ochenta, Virginia Vallejo era la máxima estrella de Colombia, una joven presentadora de noticias divorciada a la que cortejaban los grandes magnates del país. En 1982, conoció a Pablo Escobar, cuando él era solo un representante suplente de la Cámara del Congreso colombiano, de clase popular y casado. En 1983, iniciaron una discreta —aunque tormentosa—relación que duró hasta 1987. En el transcurso de ese lustro, Vallejo aprendería de Escobar el precio de los presidentes, políticos y militares de su país, y también el de los dictadores caribeños. El narcotraficante, por su parte, conocería de mano de la periodista el manejo del poder en Colombia, desde la perspectiva privilegiada de la única mujer educada y de clase alta que Escobar había tratado. Amando a Pablo, odiando a Escobar es la crónica del origen de los grupos guerrilleros colombianos y del negocio del secuestro, del nacimiento de la gigantesca industria de las drogas y de la creación de las primeras organizaciones paramilitares. Es, también, una gran historia de amor, profunda y dolorosa, un thriller que nos va conduciendo a través de todos los matices de una relación prohibida y una visión íntima del legendario barón de la droga que partió para siempre la historia de Colombia, y su relación con el resto del continente y con el mundo.
Book Synopsis Loving Pablo (Loving Pablo, Hating Escobar MTI) by : Virginia Vallejo
Download or read book Loving Pablo (Loving Pablo, Hating Escobar MTI) written by Virginia Vallejo and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2018-05-01 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A revealing memoir of Colombian television journalist Virginia Vallejo's affair with the "King of Cocaine," notorious Medellin drug lord, Pablo Escobar. Soon to be a Major Motion Picture starring Javier Bardem and Penelope Cruz. At 33, Virginia Vallejo was part of the media elite. A renowned anchorwoman and socialite, and a model who appeared on magazine covers worldwide, Vallejo was the darling of Colombia's most powerful politicians and billionaires. Meeting Pablo Escobar in 1983, then becoming his mistress for many years, she witnessed the rise of a drug empire that was characterized by Escobar's far-reaching political corruption, his extraordinary wealth, and a network of violet crime that lasted until his death in 1993. In this highly personal and insightful story, Vallejo characterizes the duality of Escobar. His charm and charisma as a benefactor to many Colombians contrast with the repulsiveness of his criminal actions as a tyrannical terrorist and enemy of many world leaders. Told from the perspective of the present day, and reflecting on her cooperation with the US Department of Justice in 2006, as she testified against high-ranking Colombian ministers on trial for conspiracy and murder, Vallejo offers a compelling work of both intimate reflection and critical journalism—a unique perspective on the Colombian drug wars and the endlessly fascinating figure of Pablo Escobar.

Book Synopsis Pablo Escobar and Colombian Narcoculture by : Aldona Bialowas Pobutsky
Download or read book Pablo Escobar and Colombian Narcoculture written by Aldona Bialowas Pobutsky and published by University Press of Florida. This book was released on 2020-03-18 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the years since his death in 1993, Colombian drug lord Pablo Escobar has become a globally recognized symbol of crime, wealth, power, and masculinity. In this long-overdue exploration of Escobar’s impact on popular culture, Aldona Bialowas Pobutsky shows how his legacy inspired the development of narcoculture—television, music, literature, and fashion representing the drug-trafficking lifestyle—in Colombia and around the world. Pobutsky looks at the ways the “Escobar brand” surfaces in bars, restaurants, and clothing lines; in Colombia’s tourist industry; and in telenovelas, documentaries, and narco memoirs about his life, which in turn have generated popular interest in other drug traffickers such as Griselda Blanco and Miami’s “cocaine cowboys.” Pobutsky illustrates how the Colombian state strives to erase his memory while Escobar’s notoriety only continues to increase in popular culture through the transnational media. She argues that the image of Escobar is inextricably linked to Colombia’s internal tensions in the areas of cocaine politics, gender relations, class divisions, and political corruption and that his “brand” perpetuates the country’s reputation as a center of organized crime, to the dismay of the Colombian people. This book is a fascinating study of how the world perceives Colombia and how Colombia’s citizens understand their nation’s past and present.

Book excerpt: A blend of Manhunt, Killing Pablo, and Zero Dark Thirty, Andrew Hogan and Douglas Century’s sensational investigative high-tech thriller—soon to be a major motion picture from Sony—chronicles a riveting chapter in the twentieth-century drug wars: the exclusive inside story of the American lawman and his dangerous eight-year hunt that captured El Chapo—the world’s most wanted drug kingpin who evaded the law for more than a decade. Every generation has a larger-than-life criminal: Jesse James, Billy the Kid, John Dillinger, Al Capone, John Gotti, Pablo Escobar. But each of these notorious lawbreakers had a "white hat" in pursuit: Wyatt Earp, Pat Garrett, Eliot Ness, Steve Murphy. For notorious drug lord Joaquín Archivaldo Guzmán-Loera—El Chapo—that lawman is former Drug Enforcement Administration Special Agent Andrew Hogan. In 2006, fresh out of the D.E.A. Academy, Hogan heads west to Arizona where he immediately plunges into a series of gripping undercover adventures, all unknowingly placing him on the trail of Guzmán, the leader of the Sinaloa Cartel, a Forbes billionaire and Public Enemy No. 1 in the United States. Six years later, as head of the D.E.A.’s Sinaloa Cartel desk in Mexico City, Hogan finds his life and Chapo’s are ironically, on parallel paths: they’re both obsessed with the details. In a recasting of the classic American Western on the global stage, Hunting El Chapo takes us on Hogan’s quest to achieve the seemingly impossible, from infiltrating El Chapo’s inner circle to leading a white-knuckle manhunt with an elite brigade of trusted Mexican Marines—racing door-to-door through the cartel’s stronghold and ultimately bringing the elusive and murderous king-pin to justice. This cinematic crime story following the relentless investigative work of Hogan and his team unfolds at breakneck speed, taking the reader behind the scenes of one of the most sophisticated and dangerous counter-narcotics operations in the history of the United States and Mexico.
