#readingtheamericas2023. #uruguay Not the poetic, multi-voice brilliance of Memory of Fire but nevertheless an interesting history of the whole world through small vignettes of key people. Like all history, this one comes with a point of view. We hear about the enslaved as well as the enslavers, we hear about South and Central America, not just Europe and North America. Plus, who knew, the history of the world is full of women.
