When the Guevara family learned from the front pages that Che was dead, they decided to say nothing. Fifty years on, his younger brother, Juan Martin, breaks the silence to narrate his intimate memories and share with us his views of the character behind one of history's most iconic figures. Juan Martin brings Che back to life, as a caring and protective older brother. Alongside the many practical jokes and escapades they undertook together, Juan Martin also relates the two extraordinary months he spent with the Comandante in 1959, in Havana, at the epicentre of the Cuban Revolution. He remembers Che as an idealist and adventurer and also as a committed intellectual. And he tells us of their parents - eccentric, cultivated, bohemian - and of their brothers and sisters, all of whom played a part in his political awakening. This unique autobiographical account sheds new light on a figure who continues to be revered as a symbol of revolutionary action and who remains a source of inspiration for many who believe that the struggle for a better world is not in vain"-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 500 $a "First published in French as: Mon freÌre le Che, © EÌditions Calman LeÌvy, 2016"--Title page verso. 600 10 $a Guevara, Che, $d 1928-1967. 650 0 $a Guerrillas $z Latin America $v Biography. 651 0 $a Cuba $x History $y 1959-1990. 651 0 $a Latin America $x History $y 1948-1980. 700 1 $a Vincent, Armelle. 941 $a 2 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231018025156.0 952 $l GUPF501 $d 20171215010901.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=A9F1161EE16511E7BF0E531697128E48 994 $a C0 $b JINInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
