Happy Birthday, Eduardo Galeano

In “The Book of Embraces,” Eduardo Galeano muses:

“We are all mortal until the first kiss and the second glass of
wine.”

Galeano was born on this day in 1940. If he has ever wondered if we’d still need him when he’s 64...well, I’m sure glad he’s around and as passionate as ever.



(Galeano’s quote comes courtesy of Today in Literature, a highly recommended calendar of engaging stories about the great books, writers, and events in literary history: http://www.todayinliterature.com)
