What is different is that Guevara's book became the most widely read of his works after his execution at age 39 in 1967, which resulted in his subsequent vilification (by those in power) and mythologization (by other revolutionaries).
不同的是，格瓦拉的《摩托車之旅》之所以成為他最廣泛被閱讀的著作，是由於在 1967 年、年僅 39 歲即遭處決的格瓦拉，其當代形象經過當權者醜化與革命同志神化等層層轉喻後，僅存空洞的浪漫、叛逆形象而已。
