Summary: Castro et al
Comment: It is quite an honor to review this book, which was promoted by Fidel Castro. Are you guys kidding? Or is "The Left" peopled by idiots?
Rating: 5
Summary: To be read slowly... and again
Comment: There are history books that one feels a rush to finish, to learn more, to devour. This book demands to be read slowly. carefully. To feel the words. Not only to understand them intellectually but to feel them in your spirit.
Read the last words of Salvador Allende before La Moneda Palace was bombed. and then read them again.
"It is possible they will smash us," Allenda said "but tomorrow belongs to the people."
Tomorrow belongs to the people.
Read Joan Jara talk about the week her husband Victor was arrested and tortured, and how she later found him.
and read Victor's last poem.
and read Ariel Dorfman talk about how the U.S. September 11th reminded him of the Chilean September 11th.
and read all of this while remembering that the military coup in Chile, the mass killings that followed, the repression and disappearances, the rise of Augusto Pinochet, was all with the support of Nixon and Kissinger.
and then read it all again.
Rating: 5
Summary: a one-sided page turner
Comment: This little account of Sept 11 Chile will just give you the chills. Although it is very one-sided, it shows this side subtely.
The voices of the people and their stories are heard. It is a great easy read for someone that wants to know about Chile and teh Socialist movement with Salvador Allende. It's a great title too, because it grabs people's attention from the USA. Sometimes in the US other countries' struggles are unknown.
