The rare first edition, only published in Portuguese of this important political text by Jean-Paul Sartre, written in Cuba in 1960. The text was not published in France except in the form of articles in France-Soir, before first appearing in its complete form in 2008 in the journal Les Temps Modernes. Both a reportage on Castro and a fierce critique of American policy during Batista's dictatorial rule, this essay on the Cuban revolution is preceded by an unpublished preface by Sartre and followed by articles by the Brazilian thinkers Fernando Sabino and Rubem Braga.
