IN THE DAWNING OF AQUARIUS

Abstract

This work of the Chilean writer Jaime Hales, motivated by an essay by Sergio I. Melnick published in 2001 —"The Twin Towers and the New Direction of History"— is a sharp reflection on the sense and nonsense of the contemporary world, emerging since the September 11 attacks in the United States and reviewed two years after those facts and the invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq. For Hales, dedicated to the study of the holistic thought and the oracles, nothing is beyond sense, including the most terrible.
