Days and Nights of Love and War

"Days and Nights is a testimony to the power of fear to silence a population. It is also a testimony to the courage of those who refuse to be silenced… Days and Nights succeeds not only because of its socio-political authenticity and lyrical style but because of its interweaving of anger and tenderness, elation and sorrow." ~The Nation

"This book is a collection of reminiscences, comment and reportage, spanning twenty years and several countries throughout Latin America. It is Galeano's response to the dictators' instruction "it is forbidden to remember", a testimony to the thousands imprisoned, tortured, murdered and the "disappeared", to all those who have kept alive the flame of opposition to imperialism, exploitation, and dictatorship... This book is an inspiration, a book for hard times by someone who knows what that really means." ~Race and Class
