![]() ![]() Author: Galeano Eduardo; L'Ultimo Uomo (cur.) Publisher: Sur Se i milioni di lettori di Eduardo Galeano sanno che le sue passioni oscillano tra il fervore politico e una fede calcistica altrettanto incrollabile, gli amici del grande scrittore uruguayano sapevano altrettanto bene che ogni quattro anni, quando si disputavano i mondiali di calcio, Galeano si barricava in casa, non riceveva nessuno e - per essere più chiaro contro gli scocciatori inavveduti - appendeva un cartello fuori dalla porta, con su scritto a caratteri cubitali: «Chiuso per calcio». Per tutta la sua lunga carriera Galeano ha raccontato questa sua passione in libri interamente dedicati al calcio, in racconti, e in avvincenti cronache giornalistiche. Tutta questa produzione futbolera viene ora riunita per la prima volta in un volume antologico in cui compaiono anche molti testi inediti e articoli recuperati da sue vecchie collaborazioni giornalistiche per piccole o grandi testate internazionali. In un centinaio di brevi capitoli fulminanti vediamo sfilare le glorie del passato e gli idoli moderni, il calcio come mito e come business, gli onori e le delusioni. E un bel pezzo di storia, non solo sportiva. L'edizione italiana è impreziosita da uno spassoso «Glossario» a cura della redazione di l'Ultimo Uomo, il più brillante e seguito collettivo di giornalismo sportivo in Italia degli ultimi dieci anni, che firma anche l'introduzione a questa edizione. Prefazione di Daniele Manusia. € 19,00

![]() ![]() Author: Galeano Eduardo Publisher: Sur L'America Latina è la regione dalle vene aperte. Dalla sua scoperta ai giorni nostri ogni risorsa naturale e umana è stata depredata e sfruttata, trasformandosi in capitale europeo e, più tardi, statunitense. Metalli preziosi, rame e ferro, petrolio, caffè, frutta, caucciù e forza lavoro sono confluiti all'interno di un sistema capitalistico che ha condannato alla sudditanza e all'instabilità politica un intero continente. Intessendo elementi di analisi socio-economica con un racconto dai toni favoleggianti, Eduardo Galeano ricostruisc in questo saggio cinque secoli di storia di quella parte del Nuovo Mondo relegata tristemente al ruolo di America di serie B. Con un saggio di Andrea Staid. € 20,00

![]() ![]() Author: Galeano Eduardo, Fried Mark (TRN) Publisher: Nation Books Selected by Guernica magazine as an 'Editors’ Picks: Best of 2013' Unfurling like a medieval book of days, each page of Eduardo Galeano’s Children of the Days has an illuminating story that takes inspiration from that date of the calendar year, resurrecting the heroes and heroines who have fallen off the historical map, but whose lives remind us of our darkest hours and sweetest victories. Challenging readers to consider the human condition and our own choices, Galeano elevates the little-known heroes of our world and decries the destruction of the intellectual, linguistic, and emotional treasures that we have all but forgotten. Readers will discover many inspiring narratives in this collection of vignettes: the Brazilians who held a ?smooch-in” to protest against a dictatorship for banning kisses that ?undermined public morals”; the astonishing day Mexico invaded the United States; and the ?sacrilegious” women who had the effrontery to marry each other in a church in the Galician city of A Coruña in 1901. Galeano also highlights individuals such as Pedro Fernandes Sardinha, the first bishop of Brazil, who was eaten by Caeté Indians off the coast of Alagoas, as well as Abdul Kassem Ismael, the grand vizier of Persia, who kept books safe from war by creating a walking library of 117,000 tomes aboard four hundred camels, forming a mile-long caravan. Beautifully translated by Galeano’s longtime collaborator, Mark Fried, Children of the Days is a majestic humanist treasure that shows us how to live and how to remember. It awakens the best in us. € 15,20

![]() ![]() Author: Galeano Eduardo, Fried Mark (TRN) Publisher: Nation Books In this witty and rebellious history of world soccer, award-winning writer Eduardo Galeano searches for the styles of play, players, and goals that express the unique personality of certain times and places. In Soccer in Sun and Shadow, Galeano takes us to ancient China, where engravings from the Ming period show a ball that could have been designed by Adidas to Victorian England, where gentlemen codified the rules that we still play by today and to Latin America, where the ?crazy English” spread the game only to find it creolized by the locals. All the greats?Pelé, Di Stéfano, Cruyff, Eusébio, Puskás, Gullit, Baggio, Beckenbauer? have joyous cameos in this book. yet soccer, Galeano cautions, ?is a pleasure that hurts.” Thus there is also heartbreak and madness. Galeano tells of the suicide of Uruguayan player Abdón Porte, who shot himself in the center circle of the Nacional’s stadium; of the Argentine manager who wouldn’t let his team eat chicken because it would bring bad luck; and of scandal-riven Diego Maradona whose real crime, Galeano suggests, was always ?the sin of being the best.” Soccer is a game that bureaucrats try to dull and the powerful try to manipulate, but it retains its magic because it remains a bewitching game??a feast for the eyes ... and a joy for the body that plays it”?exquisitely rendered in the magical stories of Soccer in Sun and Shadow. € 15,20

Pagine che schiudono le labbra del tempo, attraverso le quali possiamo sentire le sue mille voci, soprattutto quelle della vita quotidiana, dove è nascosta la grandezza dell'universo. Nello stile aforistico che spesso ha usato, Galeano offre un racconto poetico e insieme ricco di spunti ironici e di denuncia nei confronti del potere, che sempre tenta di limitare la libertà delle coscienze. € 10,50

![]() ![]() Author: Salgado Sebastiao, Schell Orville (FRW), Ritchin Fred (INT), Galeano Eduardo (AFT), Salgado Lelia Wanick (CON) Publisher: Univ of California Pr In 1984 Sebastião Salgado began what would be a fifteen-month project of photographing the drought-stricken Sahel region of Africa in the countries of Chad, Ethiopia, Mali, and Sudan, where approximately one million people died from extreme malnutrition and related causes. Working with the humanitarian organization Doctors Without Borders, Salgado documented the enormous suffering and the great dignity of the refugees. This early work became a template for his future photographic projects about other afflicted people around the world. Since then, Salgado has again and again sought to give visual voice to those millions of human beings who, because of military conflict, poverty, famine, overpopulation, pestilence, environmental degradation, and other forms of catastrophe, teeter on the edge of survival. Beautifully produced, with thoughtful supporting narratives by Orville Schell, Fred Ritchin, and Eduardo Galeano, this first U.S. edition brings some of Salgado's earliest and most important work to an American audience for the first time. Twenty years after the photographs were taken, Sahel: The End of the Road is still painfully relevant. Born in Brazil in 1944, Sebastião Salgado studied economics in São Paulo and Paris and worked in Brazil and England. While traveling as an economist to Africa, he began photographing the people he encountered. Working entirely in a black-and-white format, Salgado highlights the larger meaning of what is happening to his subjects with an imagery that testifies to the fundamental dignity of all humanity while simultaneously protesting its violation by war, poverty, and other injustices. 'The planet remains divided,' Salgado explains. 'The first world in a crisis of excess, the third world in a crisis of need.' This disparity between the haves and the have-nots is the subtext of almost all of Salgado's work. € 66,90

![]() ![]() Author: Galeano Eduardo, Fried Mark (TRN), Posada Jose Guadalupe Publisher: Picador USA In a series of mock lesson plans and a 'program of study' Galeano provides an eloquent, passionate, funny and shocking exposé of First World privileges and assumptions. From a master class in 'The Impunity of Power' to a seminar on 'The Sacred Car'—with tips along the way on 'How to Resist Useless Vices' and a declaration of the 'The Right to Rave'—he surveys a world unevenly divided between abundance and deprivation, carnival and torture, power and helplessness. We have accepted a 'reality' we should reject, he writes, one where poverty kills, people are hungry, machines are more precious than humans, and children work from dark to dark. In the North, we are fed on a diet of artificial need and all made the same by things we own; the South is the galley slave enabling our greed. € 17,90
