 the world-renowned Uruguayan author of the Memory of Fire Trilogy, The Book 
 of Embraces, and many other masterworks. Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez 
 gave his Open Veins of Latin America to President Obama when they first  
 met, sending the book overnight to #2 on Amazon's bestseller list.\n\nOne 
 of Latin America’s most distinguished writers, journalists and 
 historians, Eduardo Galeano is the author of the Memory of Fire Trilogy, 
 Open Veins of Latin America, Days and Nights of Love and War, Walking 
 Words, Soccer in Sun and Shadow, The Book of Embraces, Mirrors, and many 
 other works. Born in Montevideo in 1940, Galeano lived in exile in 
 Argentina and Spain for many years before returning to Uruguay. His work 
 has inspired popular and classical music composers from all over the world. 
 He was the recipient of the first Lannan Prize for Cultural Freedom, the 
 Casa de las Americas Prize, and the First Distinguished Citizen of the 
 region by the countries of Mercosur.  His admirers include Isabel Allende, 
 Gabriel Garcia Marquez, Subcomandante Marcos, Howard Zinn, Naomi Klein, and 
 of course Hugo Chavez.  Eduardo is a man of truly progressive principles 
 and pure literary duende.\n \nGaleano’s new work unfurls like a medieval 
 book of days. Each page has an illuminating story that takes inspiration 
 from that day of the calendar year. Each entry resurrects the heroes and 
 heroines who have fallen off the historical map. Beautifully translated by 
 Galeano’s longtime collaborator, Mark Fried, Children of the Days is a 
 great humanist treasure that shows us how to live and how to remember. \n\n
