Among the books about Che that have just now come out, one by Jorge G. Castañeda, Compañero: The Life and Death of Che Guevara , offers an exceptionally lucid analysis of Che's life and doings, based on a tremendous amount of research both in Cuba and in American-government files.

References Bullock 1972; Castañeda 1936; Colahan 1994; DeBaca 1988; Dobie 1964; Hallenbeck and Williams 1971; Sturmberg 1920; Zavala 1917
Yet in a few paragraphs at the front and close of his book on Che, even Castañeda, this most intelligent and admirable of historians, extols "the fervent idealism and generational arrogance of 1968" around the world, and then anoints Che as "the one man who most closely embodied its deeper meaning."
The weekly book reviews like such highbrow biographies as Hermione Lee's Virginia Woolf (the New York Times Book Review ) and Jorge Castañeda's Compañero: The Life and Death of Che Guevara (Richard Eder, the Los Angeles Times ). Other reviewers fill their lists with celebrity memoirs, especially Mia Farrow's What Falls Away --a trend some critics bemoan.
