A non fiction book by

 
 
From the author of Memory of Fire, a brilliant feat of storytelling in the tradition of Italo Calvino's Italian Folktales.

In Walking Words world-renowned author Eduardo Galeano draws on the folklore of rural and urban Latin America to discover and retell "the stories of ghouls and fools that Id like to write." These tales are beautifully illustrated by his collaborator, the Brazilian woodcut artist Jose Francisco Borges, and become testaments to the power of stories to make and remake and enchant the world.
