historical masterpiece

well what can you say about one of the best modern latin american writers. this book is brilliant and engages the readed from page one. Miguel Marmol was a extraordinary man who escaped death a number of times. he lived, breathed and acted out his revolution. He was a Latin American revolutionary that deserves recognition for the hard work that he did during our history's dark days. this book does just that. this book is a must read. having read it in spanish i am pleased to see that it is available in English. Roque, if only they had not killed you! what a shame. que viva el salvador. ps: also check out Eduardo Galeano's Memorias de Fuego the third book. Miguel Marmol is the central character throughout this book also.
