Additional Product Features

Reviews
[Galeano] is a dangerous radical storyteller, like Gabriel Garcia Marquez, like Isabel Allende, and like Pablo Neruda before them. . . . The Book of Embraces is a mosaic, or Deigo Rivera mural in words., In The Book of Embraces, Galeano goes out on the tightrope and then levitates in the air above it. . . . [His] subject is nothing less that the variety of human life and love.

  • Poetic and Captivating

    Very interesting read-- combination of autobiography and poetical prose. If you enjoyed this book I'd also recomend Joe Wenderoth's "Letters To Wendy's," although that book is completely fictional, it's done in a similar style. The language in "A Book of Embraces" is beautiful and captivating. Excellent read!
