About this listen
CASTRO AS YOU'VE NEVER KNOWN HIM
Castro: A Biography by Consent offers the most comprehensive and in-depth life history of one of the most iconic and controversial revolutionary leaders of the modern world. Respected by some, despised by others, Fidel Castro was a force to reckon with, and Claudia Furiati spent nine years of intensive research unraveling and chronicling his story through seven decades of Cuban history.
Castro granted Furiati his consent to write this biography and gave his assurance that he would not read it until the book was completed and published. He allowed her access to his personal (confidential and secret) archives and official files. Through these and multiple interviews with Castro’s friends and enemies alike, Furiati fills in gaps missing from other biographies and provides, through extensive narrative and photos, a powerful portrayal of this charismatic yet enigmatic head of state.
First published in Portuguese, followed by Spanish, Italian, and Chinese translations, this English translation is the definitive chronicle of Fidel Castro’s life.

“In this biography, to which she dedicated nine years of research and interviews, Claudia Furiati worked tirelessly to eternalize the most complete and accurate story of this great man's life.”—Oscar Niemeyer
“Among all contemporary political leaders, it’s hard to find someone considered as fascinating by so many people as Fidel Castro. His ‘consented’ biography is MAGNIFICENT.”—Leandro Konder, Jornal do Brasil
“Claudia Furiati's biography of Fidel Castro is simply spectacular. A brilliant work that took almost ten years to be finished. This book is a very serious matter.”—Juca Kfouri, Rede TV
