	Eduardo Galeano

	Amazon.com: Voices of Time: A Life in Stories: Books: Eduardo Galeano,Mark Fried (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		Galeano's Spanish thoughts are beautifully translated by Mark Fried and as is the case in all translations of books of other languages, the translator owns a significant portion of the success of the book.
		Galeano continues his idiosyncratic manner of writing in brief bits and pieces of thoughts, responses, fits of anger, musings on beauty, and responses to the world in which we struggle to live.
		Eduardo Galeano's lyrical and poetic literary style floats like a butterfly; when his subjects are the political and social outrages of history, it can also sting like a bee.

	Eduardo Galeano, The Book of Embraces
		Eduardo Galeano's The Book of Embraces presents an experience that is at once fragmented and integrated.
		In contrast, Galeano applauds the fishermen of Colombia who coined the word sentipensante (feeling-thinking) "to define language that speaks the truth." So Galeano embraces the exceptional and the banal, the whimsical and the profound, the visionary and the concrete--and the visual and the verbal.
		Galeano's very occasional lapses are excesses of the heart, and easily forgivable because his work, both in this book and elsewhere, is inspired and validated by its heartfelt quality.

	"Upside Down" by Eduardo Galeano - Salon (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		Galeano discusses patterns of abuse, not only of the poor by the rich within individual countries but of "developing" countries (in Galeano's shorthand, the South) by the industrial powers (the North) -- the same issue that drew angry thousands into the streets in Seattle and Prague.
		Galeano focuses on corruption, human rights abuses and exploding poverty in Latin America: Police death squads in Brazil and Argentina, for instance, gun down homeless children by the hundreds each year.
		Galeano's excoriating vision might make the most cynical realpolitiko wonder whether the strength of the dollar is, in the end, worth our racing the world to hell.

		But throughout Galeano seems to maintain his faith in the human spirit: "When it is genuine, when it is born of the need to speak, no one can stop the human voice" (from "Celebration of the Human Voice 2").
		Galeano has been criticized for his lack of organization and rambling style, yet the "random" musings is literature in its purest form.
		Galeano's writings are therefore permeated by a sort of nostalgia for Latin America before political forces altered it beyond recognition.

	Compare Prices and Read Reviews on Eduardo Galeano - Soccer in Sun and Shadow at Epinions.com
		As Galeano explains in his foreword, which he calls the author's confession, "Years have gone by and I've finally learned to accept myself for who I am: a beggar for good soccer.
		Galeano's book is by turns the self-portrait of a soccer fanatic, a primer of the basics of the game, a collection of private favorite moments in the history of the sport and a useful, if abridged, guide to its most historically important moments - the World Cup tournaments.
		These are just a few moments to remember in the history of a sport that captivates practically the entire population of the globe, outside the U.S., that is. Galeano's book is a confection of pure pleasure for the soccer fan, whose only defect is to be too short.

	Open Veins of Latin America by Eduardo Galeano
		Rather than chronology, geography, or political successions, Eduardo Galeano has organized the various facets of Latin American history according to the patterns of five centuries of exploitation.
		Thus he is concerned with gold and silver, cacao and cotton, rubber and coffee, fruit, hides and wool, petroleum, iron, nickel, manganese, copper, aluminum ore, nitrates, and tin.
		These are the veins which he traces through the body of the entire continent, up to the Rio Grande and throughout the Caribbean, and all the way to their open ends where they empty into the coffers of wealth in the United States and Europe.
