Praise for Eduardo Galeano’s Upside Down
“This is arguably Galeano’s most spirited and eloquent examination of our topsy-turvy modern world—a ticking literary hand grenade waiting to detonate in the mind of the reader.”
—Publishers Weekly
“A ferocious, poetic, mischievous, and chilling survey of political and economic systems of control around the world … scarily persuasive and acidly humorous.”
—Greg Villepique, Salon.com
“Galeano’s blend of fictional forms, autobiography, and radical social critique remains fresh for readers who yearn to find literary works with a political compass.… To read him is to step full-body through his story windows, bypassing the potholes in the brain, walking and breathing, even as bruises flicker ahead.”
—Le
nora Todaro, The Village Voice
“Vintage Galeano, a bit of journalism, a touch of satire, and great sheaves of moral outrage … and he makes it all deliciously palatable with a bawdy poet’s laugh.”
—Andrew Nikiforuk, Toronto Globe & Mail
“Deftly deconstructing postmodern social truths, Galeano shows that greed’s reach has devastated every part of the earth and implicated rich and poor alike in a culture of injustice, materialism, and fear. Cynical as his outlook may be, Galeano writes with compassion and erudite wit.… More important, Galeano shelters hope.”
—Elizabeth Shostak, New Age
“Brilliant, compelling … If one senses a dark and bitter sense of humor here, as well as fury and condemnation, it’s because Galeano insists on humanizing and personalizing his analysis.”
—Anthony Arnove, In These Times
“Somewhere between a radical manifesto and a Biercian Devil’s Dictionary, it builds Galeano’s satiric passion into something like a time capsule of our world. A great book by one of the world’s most remarkable writers.”
—Jeff Simon, Buffalo News
“Well documented, full of revealing anecdotes … Galeano has a great deal to say about the ‘globalitarian’ world.”
—David Wise, The Stranger (Seattle)
“Here is a book that reveals the important and pressing social and moral issues not covered in the presidential campaign of 2000. Here is a book that will convince you of the need to wed spirituality to politics. Here is a book that will challenge you to find ways to incarnate the practice of justice for all your days.”
—Frederic and Mary Ann Brussati, Spirituality & Health
