Description:
<DIV><B>“An epic work of literary creation . . . There could be no greater vindication of the wonders of the lands and people of Latin America than Memory of Fire<I>.</I>” —<I>The Washington Post</I></B><BR /><BR />Eduardo Galeano’s monumental three-volume retelling of the history of the New World begins with <I>Genesis</I>, a vast chain of legends sweeping from the birth of creation to the era of savage colonialism. Through lyrical prose and deep understanding, Galeano (author of the celebrated <I>Open Veins of Latin America</I>) recounts creation myths, pre-Columbian societies, and the brutality of conquest, from the Andes to the Great Plains.<BR /><BR />Galeano’s project to restore to history “breath, liberty, and the word” unfolds as a unique, powerful work of literature. This daring masterpiece sets the past free, weaving a new kind of history from mythology, silenced voices, and the clash of worlds. <I>Genesis </I>is the first book of the Memory of Fire trilogy, which continues with <I>Faces and Masks </I>and <I>Century of the Wind</I>.</DIV>
