Shadow of a Myth is the story of Mart n Guevara, the nephew of Ernesto "Che" Guevara. On Mart n's tenth birthday, he and his family took a trip that in reality was an emigration from their native Argentina to Cuba. His father, Juan Mart n Guevara, was Ernesto's youngest brother and aspired to emulate his older brother ("el Che"). Che in the years since his death in Bolivia had become a bigger-than-life character, with a reputation of myth-like proportions on the island and in the world. On arrival in Cuba, it became Mart n's mandate to become like his uncle Che. This is the story of Mart n and of the family into which he was born and lived, and of his years of struggle coming of age in Fidel's Cuba.
