An INTERVIEW with Eduardo GALEANO
by Buket Sahin
Interview - Montevideo, Uruguay
Editing – Istanbul, Turkey
Last February, I had the privilege of interviewing the legendary writer Eduardo Galeano in Montevideo, his hometown, on a rainy day at Bacacay Cafe across 154 year-old Solis Theatre.
(The interview is published at 'CUMHURIYET', the oldest daily newspaper of Turkey for seven-days)
“Your last book `MIRRORS` is a magic mosaic of our humanity, a heartbreaking unofficial story of the world. The forgotten recall us. “Our crimes will be remembered and his truthfulness is furious” as John Berger calls it; “power of his idealism and shamanic lyricism charms the reader” as Isabel Allende calls it.

It includes stories of almost everyone! I found many stories I could relate myself. Since publishing your book `OPEN VEINS of LATIN AMERICA`, almost 40 years passed and during this period, Latin American countries managed standing against American Imperialism as proven by last elections. Could you agree that open veins of Latin America are somewhat tied together, today?
