Upside Down
A Primer for the Looking-Glass World
Eduardo Galeano; Translated by Mark Fried
Picador
"Galeano takes us on a dark tour through the rabbit hole at the End of History. Like the revolutionary printmaker Posada, he unmasks the belle epoque of the bourgeoisie as a danse macabre of the masses. No one has focused greater moral clarity on the inhuman conditions and radical inequalities that sustain the mirage of the New Economy."—

Morales takes us on a tour that ranges from music to movies to literature, highlighting how Latinos have striven to integrate their native roots with their experience in the United States. This is a fascinating read, and Morales is a bright thinker."—

My Colombian War
A Journey Through the Country I Left Behind
Silvana Paternostro
Holt Paperbacks
"A nation's narrative rendered through a personal prism, this evocative work succeeds where many similar efforts fail. The secret? Paternostro herself, a deservedly celebrated journalist, able to deftly interweave past and present and write with a compassion that resists pathos. A child of relative privilege, she left a violently changing Colombia for the States at age 15; decades later she returned as a reporter, and what follows is revelatory. Wrenching interviews with today's Colombians, unflinching descriptions of the horrors wrought by drug cartels and paramilitary groups, and unusual details keenly conveyed amount to a moving, highly memorable take on how a country lost its moorings."—
