Synopsis
This Third World perspective on the First World sees nothing but folly, lies, terror, and misuse of power. Galeano is one of Latin America's most respected historians, and his trenchant analysis of a world-turned-upside-down teaches as it entertains. A New York Times Notable Book for 2000.

Industry Reviews
"...Galeano...in compiling this catalog of crimes and absurdities has both the acidity of Jonathan Swift and his dark humor."
New Yorker (01/08/2001)

"[B]oth electric and exhortative....You'll need to allow the professor his didactic moments. He's angry and with good reason."
Voice Literary Supplement (12/20/2000)
