The Motorcycle Diaries

Notes on a Latin American Journey
Book • 2021
The Motorcycle Diaries is a posthumously published memoir of Ernesto 'Che' Guevara, recounting his 1952 journey across South America with his friend Alberto Granado.

The book chronicles their adventures on a vintage Norton motorcycle, their interactions with various cultures, and the profound impact of witnessing social injustices, such as the exploitation of mine workers and the plight of lepers.

This journey was formative in shaping Guevara's revolutionary sensibilities and his views on social change and Pan-Americanism.
