"A unique work, MEMORY OF FIRE: GENESIS is the extraordinary first volume of a great and ambitious project, a kind of historical fiction that resists categorization. In a voice stirring in its originality, Eduardo Galeano re-creates the turbulent saga of the conquest of the Americas, and above all Latin America. Folklore, fiction, journalism, history, poetry, political analysis all in one, GENESIS takes us from the indigenous myths of America's Indian peoples through the trauma of the colonization of the New World. In 308 vignettes, none more than a few pages long, Galeano's fresh, compassionate, magical voice gives us a vast array of characters: conquistadors, popes, inquisitors, pirates, scholars and poets, European monarchs and native chiefs, Indian and African slaves, rebels and turncoats, and above all, ordinary people whose lives the European conquest ended or turned upside down. While the focus is on Latin America, there are stories from North America (the Salem witch trials) and Europe (Shakespeare writing The Tempest, Cervantes in jail dreaming the New World). Filled with irony and written in anger as well as love and pity, MEMORY OF FIRE is no less than an attempt, as the author says, 'to rescue the kidnapped memory of all America, but above all of Latin America, that despised and beloved land.'"[]"To publish Eduardo Galeano is to publish the enemy: the enemy of lies, indifference, above all, of forgetfulness. Thanks to him, our crimes will be remembered. His tenderness is devastating, his truthfulness furious."---John Berger. Binding is square & tight. Dust jacket is unclipped & good in an archival mylar cover. See my listing RUB1522 for the paperback of Volume II: FACES & MASKS. N° de réf. du vendeur RUB877
