About the Author

Alberto Lati nació en la Ciudad de México en 1978. Es periodista y conductor de televisión, viajero y escritor, políglota y colaborador del Alto Comisionado de la ONU para los Refugiados. En 2013 publicó Latitudes. Crónica, viaje y balón, reeditado en una nueva versión como bestseller en 2016 (Debolsillo). Tras relatar ensus crónicas lo que presenció en más de cien países, al fin en Aquí, Borya, su primer trabajo de ficción, se apega a su imaginación y a lo que pudo ser. Alejado del contexto deportivo, se mantiene fiel a otras de sus obsesiones, empezando por idiomas, viajes y choques culturales que hacen tan vulnerable como privilegiado al trotamundos.
