The Argentine-born writer Adolfo Gilly has directly observed many
of Latin America's most dramatic events, from the Bolivian
Revolution of the 1950s and Cuba during the Missile Crisis to the
guerrilla wars of Central America and Mexico's Zapatista uprising.
Paths of Revolution presents the first representative selection
from across his extensive body of work, collecting close-quarters
reportage, sharp political analyses and reflections on art and
letters. A living link between the New Left of the 1960s and the
Pink Tide of recent decades, Gilly once described the twentieth
century as a series of lightning flashes which can illuminate our
present-day predicament. The essay form is where he fully comes
into his own, covering a truly impressive range of topics and
places. This collection draws out the continuities within one of
the world's more vibrant and politically successful left
traditions. In the Introduction, Tony Wood (author of Russia
Without Putin) offer an overall portrait of Gilly's life and work.
