Miguel Marmol: Los sucesos de 1932 en El Salvador

“Miguel Mármol is an extraordinary literary document and political resource.”—The Nation

This is the classic Latin American testimony of a shoemaker and revolutionary. Miguel Mármol devoted his life to organizing El Salvador’s poor, narrowly escaping capture and death several times for his political activities. In Prague in 1966, poet Roque Dalton interviewed Mármol, producing a remarkable first-person account of Mármol’s life.
