Book Description

América Latina no solamente ha sufrido el despojo del oro y de la plata, del caucho y del cobre y del petróleo. También le han expropiado la memoria para que no sepa de dónde viene y no pueda averiguar adónde va. Memoria del fuego es una tentativa de rescate de la historia viva de las Américas en todas sus dimensiones, olores, sabores, colores, dolores. Este primer volumen, Los nacimientos, comienza en la etapa precolombina y se extiende hasta el siglo XVII. El segundo abarca los siglos XVIII y XIX, y el último llega hasta nuestros días. Que el lector sienta que la historia está ocurriendo mientras las palabras la cuentan. Que la historia huya de los museos y respire a pleno pulmón. Que el pasado se haga presente.
