My Father Pablo Escobar. The Rise and Fall of the Colombian Drug Lord Through His Son's Eyes

Before you is the most complete and truthful story about the life of the Colombian drug lord. Pablo Escobar is a Colombian drug lord and terrorist. Escobar is called the "King of Cocaine" because he was the leader of the Medellín Cartel, which controlled 80% of the world's cocaine market by the end of the 1980s. He remains one of the most famous, brutal, and wealthy criminals in history. Much has been said about the rise and fall of Pablo Escobar, the most notorious drug dealer of all time. However, all of this has been told by outsiders who do not know him closely enough. Finally, his eldest son, Juan Pablo Escobar, broke his silence. More than two decades after the hunt for the cocaine king successfully ended, Pablo Escobar's son delved into the past and revealed the whole truth about his father. With a variety of memories, Juan Pablo Escobar tells us what his father was really like: unimaginably brutal and frightening, yet infinitely loving towards his family. This is not the story of a child, a little boy desperately seeking redemption for his father, but a shocking glimpse into the consequences of endless violence mixed with an unbounded need for forgiveness and peace. "Pablo Escobar is a criminal, drug lord, and terrorist. But he is also a father and a husband, and for that reason, the story told through the mouth of his son shocks and captivates. It is not the perspective of a child wishing to justify his father, but a revelation about violence, the need for peace, and redemption." - Maria Sopkina and Daria Saburova, creators of the podcast "This is the deal"
