Here we find a film actor; a war hero destined to replace Bogart who lived consumed by hatred of the screen and guilt; a Soviet general who changed his name ten times and participated in every revolution of the 20th century; a spy against the Paris Commune who owned eleven houses; Joseph Stalin, the king of Photoshop; a Tsarist general who aspired to be Genghis Khan; a wonderfully romantic painting and its creator; a one-eyed Mexican man who led the most successful prostitutes' strike in world history; the young John Reed in Mexico; the author's love for Venetian lions; Spanish anarchist Francisco Ascaso’s last 72 hours; a mysterious novelist named Bogomolov; the Venezuelan professional revolutionary Aponte; and the beloved master of New Latin American Journalism, Rodolfo Walsh. These are stories from history.
