Galeano Eduardo

Summary

Eduardo Galeano: Football in the sun and in the shade

This is not just a book about football - this is a book about love, passion, human nature and the history of the twentieth century refracted through the magical game on the green field. Eduardo Galeano, one of the most influential Latin American intellectuals, writes with incredible warmth and poetic style about the glitz and misery of the most important secondary things in the world.

Through short, sharp and striking lines, the author takes us from the dusty streets of Montevideo to the spotlights of mythical stadiums. Galeano celebrates the genius of masters like Pelé, Maradona, Cruyff and Garrincha, but at the same time he speaks without a hair on his tongue about the dark side of modern football - corruption, dictatorships that used it as a cover, and the greed of the powerful who turned the game into a cold industry. Perfect reading both for passionate fans and for lovers of high-quality literature and social essays.
