    I think the problem with this particular book is that it talks more about Alberto Korda (who took the picture) than it gives actual analysis of how Che's "afterlife" affects modern day culture. And in this sense the book is quite poor, it doesn't seem to get out of campesino latin americans perception of what Guevara means to them. Overall it was a really good book though, it was well written, maybe not specifically what I was hoping (and what it's description led me to believe) but it deserves a read.
