About the Book

Anthony DePalma, escribe una fascinante y bien documentada biografia de Herbert L. Matthews, el destacado periodista del New York Times que ademas de haber sido el autor de una historica entrevista a Fidel Castro en 1957, fue corresponsal de guerra en la invasion de Abisinia por la Italia fascista y durante la guerra civil espanola. "Una vida tras las huellas de la verdad le habia ensenado a Herbert Matthews que ninguna mentira es mas poderosa que los mitos, y que ninguna verdad es mas fragil que aquella que nadie quiere oir. Estaba convencido de que un mito habia arruinado practicamente sus cuarenta y cinco anos de carrera como editorialista, reportero, y corresponsal; uno de los corresponsales extranjeros mas influyentes y controvertidos del siglo XX. Culpaba a las verdades desagradables al oido por convertir su vida en un infierno. Matthews se habia internado en las impenetrables montanas cubanas, de las que habia emergido con una exclusiva sensacional para la portada de The New York Times: Fidel Castro, a quien se creia muerto hacia ya meses, se encontraba vivo y saludable, y habia sido elegido para conducir la revolucion en Cuba. Su firma, arrancada de las notas de Matthews, aparecia bajo una fotografia en la que se veia a Castro saliendo de los bosques con un rifle de mira telescopica y un rostro exento de malicia. La entrevista, llevada a cabo en el escondite de Castro en la Sierra, marco un momento decisivo en la historia de Cuba y, pasando el tiempo, tambien en la de los Estados Unidos, puesto que senalo el primer escalon en el ascenso de Castro al poder. Por un tiempo, al menos, convirtio a Matthews y a Castro en figuras heroicas." La red de relaciones entre Castro, Matthews y el New York Times descritas con gran detalle por DePalma sirve de marco para apreciar los conflictos que enfrentan de manera cotidiana los medios de comunicacion, en particular los que surgen de la confusion entre informacion objetiva y opinion partidista. Anthony DePalma es un destacado periodista del New York Times donde escribe regularmente desde hace mas de 20 anos. Fue corresponsal y Jefe de la redaccion en Mexico y Canada y ha cubierto eventos importantes en todo el hemisferio, incluyendo Cuba. Tambien es autor del libro Here: A Biography of the New American Continent (PublicAffairs, 2001). DePalma vive en Montclair, NJ, con su esposa Miriam y sus tres hijos.
