Translation of: El libro de los abrazos. Includes index

This literary scrapbook, mixing memoir, documentary, essay, and prose poem, defies clear-cut genre classification. Journalist/writer Galeano, who claims he writes for the downtrodden, infuses the people and subjects dear to him with his socialist viewpoint and ironic poignancy, typified by such pieces as ``Christmas Eve'' and ``Paradoxes.''
