Hija de Revolucionarios by Laurence Debray A conversation between the writer and a distinguished panel composed by economist Beatrice Rangel, artist Rolando Peña, political analyst Horacio Medina and journalist Eduardo Orozco

Laurence Debray is the daughter of philosopher Regis Debray and historian Elizabeth Burgos. Her parents came from wealthy families, and both embraced the revolutionary cause of Castro.

In this sincere book, Laurence Debray tells the myth and truth of her revolutionary parents and her own life. 

The author fluently combines the gaze of a daughter who scrutinizes her parents, the sincerity of the most intimate memories and the distanced perspective of a historian who reviews a time of revolutionary fervor, all written following the forceful maxim of The Misanthrope de Molière who heads this dazzling testimonial and autobiographical work: «The more you love someone, the less you should be flattered; forgiving nothing proves one's love. »
