About this listen

When A Beauty That Hurts first appeared in 1995, Guatemala was one of the world’s most flagrant violators of human rights. An accord brokered by the United Nations brought a measure of peace after three decades of civil war, but the country’s troubles are far from over. W. George Lovell revisits Guatemala to grapple once again with the terror inflicted on its Maya peoples by a military-dominated state.

Critic Reviews

“This is a true ‘Guatemala Guide.’ George Lovell didn’t choose Guatemala - he was chosen by this land, in a magic way, to tell us about the shining voices that whisper in the heart of darkness.” (Eduardo Galeano, author of Open Veins of Latin America)
