Description

This anthology of the writing of José Martí’s features bilingual poetry, political essays, writings on Latin American culture, and his letters.

José Martí organized and unified the movement for Cuban independence and died on the battlefield. His dedication to the goal of Cuban freedom made his name a synonym for liberty throughout Latin America.
This collection of the writing of José Martí’s features bilingual poetry, his political essays and writings on culture, and his letters. Readers will discover a literary genius and an insightful political commentator on the troubled relationship between the United States and Latin America.

“Martí was the guide of his time but also stands as the anticipator of ours,” wrote Cuban revolutionary leader Carlos Rafael Rodríguez. Martí was an outstanding teacher, journalist, poet and revolutionary of his time, able to interweave the threads of Latin American culture and history.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Jose Marti is the most renowned political and literary figure in the history of Cuba. A poet, essayist, orator, statesman, abolitionist, and the martyred revolutionary leader of Cuba's fight for independence from Spain, Marti lived in exile in New York for most of his adult life, earning his living as a foreign correspondent. Following the 1959 Cuban Revolution, his ideas became a driving force in Cuban politics. 

Nestor Diaz de Villegas is a Cuban-American poet and essayist. His work has established him as one of the main Cuban conemporary voices. He is the author of several poetry books, as well as the novel De donde son los gusanos. He lives in Alhambra, California with his wife, Esther Maria, and their schnauzer, Chico.
