Descriere magazin:
Combining the passion and deep knowledge of an insider with the detachment of a seasoned veteran, Guillermoprieto offers a portrait of the three Latin American countries most important to the United States right now: Cuba, Mexico, and Colombia. 3 halftones. 1 map. From the esteemed New Yorker correspondent comes an incisive volume of essays and reportage that vividly illuminates Latin America\'s recent history. Only Alma Guillermoprieto, the most highly regarded writer on the region, could unravel the complex threads of Colombia\'s cocaine wars or assess the combination of despotism, charm, and political jiu-jitsu that has kept Fidel Castro in power for more than 40 years. And no one else can write with such acumen and sympathy about statesmen and campesinos, leftist revolutionaries and right-wing militias, and political figures from Evita Peron to Mexico\'s irrepressible president, Vicente Fox. Whether she is following the historic papal visit to Havana or staying awake for a pre-dawn interview with an insomniac Subcomandante Marcos, Guillermoprieto displays both the passion and knowledge of an insider and the perspective of a seasoned analyst. Looking for History is journalism in the finest traditions of Joan Didion, V. S. Naipaul, and Ryszard Kapucinski: observant, empathetic, and beautifully written.
