Che by Fidel Castro
In a new, expanded edition of a best-selling Ocean classic, Castro describes a historic political partnership that changed the face of Cuba and Latin America. He vividly portrays Che--the man, the revolutionary, and the thinker--recounting in detail his last days with Che in Cuba, giving a remarkably frank assessment of the Bolivian mission.
Fidel Castro, in an unusually gentle, quite emotional mood, remarks, For me it has been hard to accept the idea that Che is dead. I have dreamed of him often, that I spoke with him, that he was alive . . . Includes Castro's speech on the return of Che's remains to Cuba in 1997.
Fidel Castro led a guerrilla movement in Cuba that overthrew the Batista dictatorship in 1959. Since then, the Cuban president has been the nemesis of ten U.S. administrations. He stepped down in 2007 but has regularly expressed his views on world events and political personalities in his famous reflections. Eliades Acosta is a professor of philosophy in Santiago and the director of the Jose Marti National Library of Cuba. He founded the Santiago Cultural Center, a gathering place for Cuban intellectuals. He has toured the United States on several occasions, notably visiting the University of California (Berkeley).
