Walking Words

The author of Memory of Fire presents a brilliant feat of storytelling inspired by the folklore of rural and urban Latin America. Beautifully illustrated by Brazilian woodcut artist Jose Francisco Borges, these tales are testaments to the power of stories to make and remake and enchant the world Featured on National Public Radio.

Woodcuts by Jose Borges grace Galeano's presentation of fantasy and folklore gleaned from Latin America. This is an excellent literary presentation which blends fine woodcut images with lyrical and tense images and tales.
