Book Description Hardcover. Condition: Good. No Jacket. First Edition. A Good copy of a Former Library copy of a ".new novel." which ".takes us into the Brazil of the mid-1960's." Wear to black boards. Red lettering bright on front of boards but dulled on the spine. Smudging to black boards. Tape marks inside front cover, front flyleaves and rear flyleaves. Library stamp in black ink on top page edgings and front flyleaves. Creasing to top edge of front flyleaves. Part of dust wrapper inside flap is glued to front flyleaf. Stated First Edition. Rear flyleaf is loose but still attached along the spine. 271 pages. 3 Parts. 12 Chapters. Summary:""This amazing "revolutionary" novel is full of surprises -- not the least being that its author is a middle-aged Brazilian "man of letters" rather than some youthful wild-eyed Maoist. It glides with amazing dash and brio from torture chamber to love affair, more with the elegant grace of a minuet than with the terror of people who almost all lose their lives in failed attempts to reach Che's small guerrilla band in the Bolivian foothills. There's no sense of tragedy, only the offhand, almost humorous, way in which middle-class intellectual revolutionaries are likely to die: a bank robber turning his eye from the cashier at a crucial moment because he spots a friend stuffing stolen money from under the floorboards into a grocery bag. But there is a partial condemnation of this kind of half-hearted commitment when Che stoically nears his end; also a rather joyous vision of the future as the survivors more or less accidentally hijack a plane to transcendental Cuba. The action switches from character to character and not a word is wasted in this razzledazzle masterpiece of understatement. The "historical" sections on Che's capture and death approach grandeur without heaviness, and the clear, functional, completely artless language is admirably translated from the Portuguese by Barbara Shelby."--Kirkus".
