Fidel Castro

    13 août 1926 – 25 novembre 2016

    Fidel Castro fut un leader révolutionnaire et un homme politique qui a incarné la Révolution Cubaine. Sa philosophie politique, fermement ancrée dans le marxisme-léninisme, a conduit à la transformation de Cuba en un État socialiste doté d'une économie centralisée et de vastes réformes sociales. Castro fut une figure centrale des relations internationales de la Guerre Froide, soutenant les mouvements révolutionnaires à l'échelle mondiale et défiant l'impérialisme. Son héritage est complexe, perçu par certains comme un champion des idéaux socialistes et de la résistance anti-impérialiste, tandis que d'autres critiquent son régime autoritaire et ses conséquences.

    • The acclaimed autobiography of Fidel Castro, one of the towering political figures of our age, who dominated both Cuba and the world stage for over half a century. Here Castro tells his story in full for the first time, speaking openly about everything from his parents and earliest influences to his imprisonment, guerrilla war and the Cuban revolution and on to the Bay of Pigs, the missile crisis and his relationship with Che Guevara. He also remembers the people he knew, from John F. Kennedy to Ernest Hemingway. Whatever your views on Castro are, this is an essential record of an incredible life - and even more extraordinary times. 'Cubaphiles are all the richer for this book ... Castro's prodigious gifts are well displayed: his formidable erudition, steely discipline, epic curiosity and his astute grasp of history' Financial Times 'Castro's life has been extraordinary and he can tell a good story' Evening Standard
