My Early Years

An exclusive collection of Fidel Castro’s own remarkably frank writings about his formative years. This new, expanded edition, featuring a brilliant introductory essay by Gabriel García Márquez, includes previously unpublished personal reflections by the Cuban president.

“We have no doubt that he will make a brilliant name for himself. Fidel has what it takes and will make something of himself.” — From Fidel Castro’s final school report, 1945.

“Fidel Castro’s autobiography in the form of personal sketches offering a glimpse of him as a young boy and as a young rebel ... Fascinating reading.” — Midwest Book Review
