A Beauty that Hurts

Life and Death in Guatemala

About this book

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 armed conflict, but the country's troubles are far from over. George Lovell revisits Guatemala to grapple once again with the terror inflicted on its Maya peoples by a military-dominated state.
