2021-05-15T04:07:03.469Z


Esteban Cichello Hübne grew up in Buenos Aires, Argentina, in conditions of extreme poverty. He is now a professor at the University of Oxford.


Esteban Cichello Hübner's story is worthy of a movie, but it is not fictional at all. He was born in the province of Córdoba, in Argentina, where he spent a few years due to the separation of his parents. That break took his mother and brothers to Buenos Aires. There he grew up in conditions of extreme poverty, in a makeshift house with a dirt floor and without access to a bathroom or drinking water. Despite adversity, he never gave up in his studies and reached the position he holds today as a professor at the University of Oxford. Esteban presents his book «The Keys of Raquel», in the middle of a conversation with Guillermo Arduino in which he remembers and analyzes the different stages of his life.
