Nation Books to Publish Eduardo Galeano Stories

By Dianna Dilworth 

Nation Books has acquired Hunter of Stories by the late Uruguayan journalist/novelist Eduardo Galeano.

The title is the last book that Galeano wrote before he died in April 2015. The book contains, “a mix of old and new autobiographical material that he had been gathering and working on for several years, and it includes his reflections on death, written during the very last months of his life.” The memoir is slated for publication in Fall 2017.

“Galeano fans for whom Open Veins of Latin America was a formative work will be very excited to hear news of this last book by the master,” stated Alessandra Bastagli, Editorial Director of Nation Books. “Younger readers who are less familiar with Galeano will find in these pages a great introduction to his style and thinking, and will inevitably spark in them a lifelong passion for his work.”
