Fyi, the kindle version of Genesis was on sale for $1.99 on 1-8-2015. I don't know how long it will last - but at that price, why not pick up a copy if you read ebooks.

One should also take note of Galeano's non-fic book:: Open Veins of Latin America: Five Centuries of the Pillage of a Continent which ruffled some Empire Feathers a little while back -- ....

Wait. So there's been a change in this story. The first thing I was going to mention was that Hugo Chavez presented Mr Obama with a copy of Open Veins. Now, apparently, Galeano has "disavowed" the book. More specifically he thinks he was not qualified to write it and its prose sucks ::
"Author Changes His Mind on ’70s Manifesto: Eduardo Galeano Disavows His Book ‘The Open Veins’" --

But that is the NYT, official record of Empire, etc. Make up your own mind ; if you don't want to read stilted Leftist prose -- he's got a Trilogy to read instead.
