“Disorderly record of a chaotic era (Editorial Galerna, 2024) is not wasted. Because from the author’s perspective, Octavio Majul Conte Grand, doctor in Social Sciences, former TV panelist, musician, teacher and ‘fan’ of Jorge Luis Borges and Leopoldo Marechal, tries to understand and make understood the convulsed world in which we live. And the rugged country we inhabit. Nothing more and nothing less,” he posted Luis Majul in your X account.
On social networks, the host of La Cornisa referred to the first book published by his son Octavio Majul. “This is his first book and it is, in effect, as he himself admits, a ‘transit’ text. And it is also the real product of his love for the action of thinking. Better still: the passionate and distressing task of someone who confesses to being ‘lost’. But, at the same time, this book functions as a small/large talisman for a generation of people who would be feeling similar to Octavio,” said the television journalist, revealing the affection he has for the author.
Concluding the extensive message, a writing style that the communicator maintains in his personal account, Luis Majul concluded: “As the text progresses, each chapter aims to unravel a greater challenge. Just to cite the most provocative titles: “Milei and the victory of idealism”; “What is the point of reading?”; “Chiche Gelblum, Guillermo Moreno and the fight for attention”; “Aesthetic albertism and political albertism”; “On work in the world of today”; “Why did a group of journalists who felt part of an anti-Menemist us fight during Kirchnerism?”
The tense relationship between the renowned journalist and his son, a political scientist and television columnist, is something known in the media. However, the father’s tweet promoting his son’s literary work provides a recomposition of the parental bond between the two. In several interviews, Octavio Majul delved into how the family dynamic was affected by the lack of time to share, due to the long work hours of both. But he also recognized that the main cause of the distancing is the deep ideological differences that separate them.
In these reports, the brand new writer pointed out his preference for Kirchnerist Peronism and highlighted, in contrast and with some criticism, the affinity that his father felt with the figure of Javier Milei, highlighting that he did not have any moral conflict with his father on a personal level. In fact, the political scientist confirmed that he stopped seeing his father in person and that communication is limited to WhatsApp messages.
