N2  - "Life Stories of the Nicaraguan Revolution delineates the human dimension of the Nicaraguan conflict, revealing what it is like to live in Nicaragua today. Through conversations with Denis Heyck, twenty Nicaraguans--powerful and powerless, rich and poor, government and oppostion, educated and illiterate--tell their fascinating stories. What emerges is the picture of a shattered society, capturing twin features of Nicaragua's revolutionary experience: idealism and suffering."--Publisher description
