For decades, people have tried to persuade the leader of the Cuban Revolution to tell his own life story. Ignacio Ramonet, the celebrated editor in chief of Le Monde diplomatique, has finally succeeded. For the first time, in a series of extensive and probing interviews, Fidel Castro describes his life from the 1950s to the present day.

Fidel Castro ist eine der charismatischsten und zugleich umstrittensten politischen Persönlichkeiten unserer Zeit, der lebende Mythos der kubanischen Revolution, aber auch der diktatorische, jedwede Opposition unterdrückende "Máximo Líder". Seit 1959 ununterbrochen an der Macht, hat der begnadete Redner die Wirtschaftsblockade der USA, zehn US-Präsidenten, zahlreiche Attentatsversuche und das Ende der großen Schutzmacht Sowjetunion überstanden.

From revolutionary to Cold War adversary, Fidel Castro was one of the world's most controversial leaders and perhaps its most enduring. As Cuba's president for nearly 50 years, Castro's influential leadership captivated allies and enemies alike.

Fidel Castro is one of the most influential and controversial men of the last 50 years, equally revered and reviled by people across the globe. To the West, Castro has long been one of the prominent faces of Communism, and the main reason Cuba has been ostracized by many liberal democracies, particularly the United States.

When Fidel Castro died on November 25, 2016, it seemed as if much of the world didn’t quite know what to make of the revolutionary leader. The images of loyal Cubans in Havana openly crying in the streets stood in stark contrast to the Cuban exiles and their descendants just 90 miles away in Miami, Florida. While Cuban citizens were mourning, Cuban Americans were celebrating; they were laughing, dancing, and drinking to celebrate Castro’s demise. It seems Fidel Castro was just as polarizing in death as he was in life.

Fidel Castro, uno dei politici più influenti dell'ultimo secolo, ha attirato l'attenzione del mondo intero sin dai tempi della rivoluzione cubana. Gli ideali di libertà e la fiera opposizione agli Stati Uniti hanno sempre contraddistinto la sua linea d'azione. Politico lungimirante ma anche assolutista, Castro ha messo Cuba al centro di notevoli discussioni: l'avvento del comunismo, la crisi dei missili e l'embargo sono solo alcuni degli aspetti che hanno reso celebre il suo governo.

Fidel Castro was more than just a politician. His is a story that involves heroic voyages through turbulent oceans, affairs with young women from all over the world, spies, assassins, betrayal, conquest, riots, and battles. He was controversial, inimitable, cruel, courageous, stubborn, disrespectful of human rights, and utterly indomitable. But most of all, he never gave up. And this is his story.
