Synopsis "War"

Two-time Pulitzer Prize winner Bob Woodward tells the revelatory, behind-the-scenes story of three wars--Ukraine, the Middle East and the struggle for the American Presidency. War is an intimate and sweeping account of one of the most tumultuous periods in presidential politics and American history. We see President Joe Biden and his top advisers in tense conversations with Russian president Vladimir Putin, Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky. We also see Donald Trump, conducting a shadow presidency and seeking to regain political power. With unrivaled, inside-the-room reporting, Woodward shows President Biden's approach to managing the war in Ukraine, the most significant land war in Europe since World War II, and his tortured path to contain the bloody Middle East conflict between Israel and the terrorist group Hamas. Woodward reveals the extraordinary complexity and consequence of wartime back-channel diplomacy and decision-making to deter the use of nuclear weapons and a rapid slide into World War III. The raw cage-fight of politics accelerates as Americans prepare to vote in 2024, starting between President Biden and Trump, and ending with the unexpected elevation of Vice President Kamala Harris as the Democratic nominee for president. War provides an unvarnished examination of the vice president as she tries to embrace the Biden legacy and policies while beginning to chart a path of her own as a presidential candidate. Woodward's reporting once again sets the standard for journalism at its most authoritative and illuminating.

Bob Woodward (nacido en Geneva, Illinois, en 1943) es un periodista, escritor y editor estadounidense, considerado uno de los grandes referentes del periodismo de investigación moderno. Su nombre está estrechamente ligado al escándalo Watergate, que investigó junto a Carl Bernstein para The Washington Post a principios de la década de 1970. Las revelaciones de ambos sobre las actividades ilegales del gobierno de Richard Nixon llevaron finalmente a la dimisión del presidente en 1974 y les valieron el Premio Pulitzer en 1973.

Woodward se caracteriza por su minucioso trabajo de documentación, su estilo analítico y su capacidad para obtener información de primera mano de las fuentes más altas del poder político. A lo largo de su carrera, ha escrito numerosos libros sobre la Casa Blanca y la política estadounidense, muchos de ellos basados en entrevistas y documentos confidenciales. Entre sus obras más conocidas están All the President’s Men, The Final Days, Bush at War, Fear: Trump in the White House y Rage.

Como periodista de The Washington Post, Woodward ha mantenido su influencia durante más de cinco décadas, siendo un símbolo del periodismo independiente y de la búsqueda incansable de la verdad en el ámbito político y gubernamental.
