In a new, expanded edition of a best-selling Ocean classic, Castro describes a historic political partnership that changed the face of Cuba and Latin America. He vividly portrays Che 'the man, the revolutionary, and the thinker' recounting in detail his last days with Che in Cuba, giving a remarkably frank assessment of the Bolivian mission. Fidel Castro, in an unusually gentle, quite emotional mood, remarks, "For me it has been hard to accept the idea that Che is dead. I have dreamed of him often, that I spoke with him, that he was alive . . ." Includes Castro's speech on the return of Che's remains to Cuba in 1997. Fidel Castro (1926-2016) was a Cuban revolutionary, politician, and statesman who served as the Prime Minister and later President of Cuba. A central leader of the Cuban Revolution, Castro overthrew the Batista dictatorship in 1959 and became a defining figure in Cold War geopolitics. Known for his charismatic oratory and steadfast commitment to socialist principles, Castro's governance reshaped Cuban society and influenced leftist movements throughout Latin America. Che: A Memoir reflects his personal perspective on two of the twentieth century's most iconic revolutionaries: himself and Ernesto 'Che' Guevara' and offers insight into the emotional and political dimensions of their partnership.
