The writer and militant Adolfo Gilly directly observed many of Latin America's most tumultuous events, from the aftermath of Bolivia's National Revolution and the Cuban Missile Crisis to the guerrilla wars of Central America and Mexico's Zapatista uprising. Paths of Revolution is the first representative selection from across his extensive body of work, collecting close-quarters reportage, sharp political analysis, and reflections on art and letters. Gilly is a living link between the New Left of the 1960s and the Pink Tide of recent decades. The essay form is where he 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. Edited with an introduction by Tony Wood.
