La Vida En Rojo / Compañero: The Life and Death of Che Guevara
Castañeda, Jorge G.
Synopsis "La Vida En Rojo / Compañero: The Life and Death of Che Guevara"
La vida de Ernesto Guevara de la Serna, el Che, es relatada aquí a la luz de numerosos testimonios y documentos, tan diversos como polémicos, y desde los orígenes hasta nuestros días. Jorge G. Castañeda interroga a los testigos, a los protagonistas, a los sobrevivientes, para desentrañar facetas recónditas y perfilar la personalidad del hombre que marcó los ideales de varias generaciones, consciente de que incursiona en un territorio que ya es historia y de que el pasado, que puebla estas páginas, nos pertenece a todos, para bien o para mal. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION By the time he was killed in the jungles of Bolivia, where his body was displayed like a deposed Christ, Ernesto "Che" Guevara had become a synonym for revolution everywhere from Cuba to the barricades of Paris. This extraordinary biography peels aside the veil of the Guevara legend to reveal the charismatic, restless man behind it. Drawing on archival materials from three continents and on interviews with Guevara's family and associates, Castaneda follows Che from his childhood in the Argentine middle class through the years of pilgrimage that turned him into a committed revolutionary. He examines Guevara's complex relationship with Fidel Castro, and analyzes the flaws of character that compelled him to leave Cuba and expend his energies, and ultimately his life, in quixotic adventures in the Congo and Bolivia. A masterpiece of scholarship, Compañero is the definitive portrait of a figure who continues to fascinate and inspire the world over.

Un libro muy interesante y bien documentado. No solo analiza la vida del Che sinó también lo que llegó a significar en la cultura.
