La llaman América
by Luis J. RodríguezUna niña de nueve años, América Soliz, vive con su familia en el Barrio Pilsen de Chicago. Echa de menos su hogar en México y se siente descontenta en la escuela, donde experimenta el prejuicio contra los inmigrantes mexicanos. América se siente en la fila de atrás del salón de clase y se la pasa soñando con su aldea en Oaxaca hasta que un día un poeta, el Sr. Aponte, visita la clase. "Todos llevamos le poesía por dentro," le dice el Sr. Aponte a la clase e inspira a América a escribir. "Escriban en español o en inglés," exhorta él. América escribe cuentos y poemas, aun cuando su padre dice que es una manera poco práctica de utilizar el tiempo. Tanto el tío como la madre de América disfrutan los cuentos de la chica, y ésta descubre para sí lo que el Sr. Aponte ha dicho en clase. "Cuando se usan las palabras para compartir los sentimientos con otra persona se es poeta y los poetas pertenecen a todo el mundo." A través de la escritura, América se siente "en casa" en el Barrio Pilsen.

El Diario del Che en Bolivia
by Fidel Castro Camilo Guevara Ernesto Che GuevaraChe's diary of the fateful Bolivia mission. Now revised by Che's widow and with a preface by his son Camilo, this is the definitive account of the attempt to spark a continent-wide revolution in Latin America--the basis of Steven Soderbergh biopic on Che Guevara starring Benicio Del Toro.
Pasajes de la guerra revolucionaria
by Ernesto Che Guevara Aleida GuevaraChe Guevara's classic account of the 1956-58 guerrilla movement against the Batista dictatorship in Cuba. Here, the dramatic art and acute perceptiveness evident in Che Guevara's early diaries fully blossom in this highly readable and often entertaining account of the guerrilla war that led to the 1959 Cuban Revolution. One of two books on which Steven Soderbergh and Benicio Del Toro have based their new Che movie.
La Guerra de Guerrillas
by Ernesto Che GuevaraA bestselling Che classic for decades, this is Che Guevara's own incisive analysis of the Cuban revolution-a text studied by his admirers and adversaries alike. Here he explains how a small, dedicated group grew in strength and with the support of the Cuban people was able to defeat a dictator's army.
Diario de un combatiente
by Ernesto Che GuevaraChe's original, never-before-published diaries from the guerrilla war in Cuba's Sierra Maestra.Unpublished for over fifty years, these dozen notebooks were the source material for the articles that comprise Che's famous Reminiscences of the Cuban Revolutionary War, on which Steven Soderbergh has based his movie Che: The Argentine.Like Che's Bolivian Diary, these daily reflections reveal as much about the author as they do about the events and individuals described. Che's comments are always incisive, often highly self-critical, and sometimes brutally frank.This book includes many new, unpublished photos from the private collection of Che's widow Aleida March and a fascinating introduction by veteran Cuban revolutionary Armando Hart, who was the victim of Che's pen in these diaries, but who later became one of his closest political collaborators.As a new, unpublished work by Che Guevara, this book will attract considerable attention and will be published in English in spring 2009.
