Now available in paperback is Elena Poniatowska’s gripping account of the massacre of student protesters by police in Mexico City just days before the 1968 Olympic Games. Publishers Weekly describes this event as making “the campus killings at Kent State and Jackson State in 1970 pale by comparison.”
