Book Description

The Spanish-language edition of Self-Portrait, a unique photographic and literary memoir drawing on the rich seam of materials Che Guevara left behind in Cuba. This Self-Portrait reveals the man behind the icon through exclusive, unpublished texts and never-before-seen photographs from Che's family collection--including the cover photo personally chosen by his compañera/ widow, Aleida March.

For the first time Che's private world and thoughts are brought to light, unveiling his extraordinary candor, irony, dry humor and passion. A dedicated amateur photographer, Che's own self-portraits are a stunning feature of this selection.

"I live with this anarchic spirit that leads me to dream of horizons . . ."-Che Guevara

Available in English as Self-Portrait (ISBN 1-876175-82-6)
