What Timing...

A front page story in the New York Times explores the economic nightmare that is Latin America. A focus is given on the backlash against privatized and the failure to deliver even the most basic services. In bookstores this month is "Liberty for Latin America: How to Undo Five Hundred Years of State Oppression" by Alvaro Vargas Llosa in which he discusses what we wrong during the free market wave of the 80's and 90's and how to make it right. Unfortunately for Vargas Llosa he did not get a mention in this Times front-pager so I do not see an Amazon spike in his future. Vargas Llosa will be at Books and Books next month.
