The second volume of Eduardo Galeano'sMemory of Firetrilogy,Faces and Masksis an astonishing Latin American-eye view of the New World in the making. Here is the tangled, cataclysmic history of our hemisphere from the 1700s up to the dawn of our present century, told through characters as resonant and compelling as Simon Bolivar, Toussaint L'Ouverture, and Billy the Kid. With its brilliant and imaginative blend of journalism, scholarship, and political passion,Faces and Masksis a panoramic interpretation of the Americas no work of history has previously imagined.
