 revolutionary" - Naomi Klein\n\n"Story-hunter and gatherer Galeano has 
 captured a covey of extraordinary tales from the wise everybodies of the 
 world... they are medicine for our times - tales to break our hearts open 
 and restore to us our humanity. To experience them alone is 
 transformational. But to watch them soar to their full potential, they must 
 be released from captivity and read aloud." - Sandra Cisneros\n\nEduardo 
 Galeano (1940-2015), one of Latin America's most distinguished writers, was 
 born in Montevideo. He lived in exile in Argentina and Spain for years 
 before returning to Uruguay. Among his works are: The Open Veins of Latin 
 America, Memory of Fire (3 volumes), The Book of Embraces, Children of the 
 Days, and Walking Words. \n\nThe Bay Area authors chosen to read Eduardo's 
 work in tribute are known for their exceptional writings in poetry and 
 prose, their humanity, and their reliable solidarity.    \n\nAlice Walker 
 is an internationally renowned American novelist, short story writer, poet, 
 and activist. She wrote the critically acclaimed novel The Color Purple for 
 which she won the National Book Award and the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction. 
 \n\nAl Young is an American poet, novelist, essayist, screenwriter, and 
 professor. In 2005, he was named Poet Laureate of California. \n\nAlejandro 
 Murguia is an American poet, short story writer, editor and professor. In 
 2012, he was named San Francisco Poet Laureate. \n\nAurora Levins Morales 
 is a Puerto Rican Jewish writer and poet and "a dear friend, teacher, 
 mentor, visionary, poetic inspiration - a true outside-the-box radical 
 treasure..." \n-Penny Rosenwasser, author\n\n$15 advance, $18 door.\n
