Timerman, whose career is referenced in Lawrence Thornton's IMAGINING ARGENTINA, lived the life -- and, under such a regime as that of the Argentine generals -- and suffered the punishment of an honest journalist..
7 September 2014"And time is not an easy enemy" (p. 90).
It may sound like a bit of hyperbole to compare the Argentina of 1966 - 1980* with present-day North Korea--which I imagine to be the closest thing we have to hell on Earth.
28 July 2013Happy camper
Opened my eyes to what can occur in any of these despotic nations, the USA as well, if we allow unlimited power with zero checks and balances to the top dicators..
3 October 2010Gripping look at Political Imprisonment
Journalist Jacobo Timerman makes a powerful statement about life as a political prisoner.
12 April 2010A Survivor
Jacobo Timerman's excruciating tale of false imprisonment at the hands of Argentina's totalitarian regime.
28 February 2010memoir or political commentary?
Although Timerman gives the best description of torture possible, I found this book to be a lot like reading a really long newspaper article.
