About the Book
In this profound and thought-provoking work, Frei Betto presents a landmark interview with Fidel Castro that seeks to uncover truths long obscured by centuries of misunderstanding and ideological division. Reflecting on Castro’s assertion that societies are often “wedded to lies,” the book explores how deeply ingrained prejudices have distorted perceptions of both Christianity and Communism. Through this candid dialogue, the heavy veil separating these two traditions is lifted, revealing the possibilities of close political and ethical ties between Christians and Communists. Conducted by Frei Betto, a Brazilian Dominican friar, the interview offers readers a rare and compelling encounter—one that challenges conventional beliefs and invites serious reflection. The book stands as an extraordinary intellectual and moral exchange, described as an “amazing” event that rewards deep study and thoughtful engagement.
