A spokesman for Daniel Ortega, the Sandinista leader voted out as president of Nicaragua, says some 16 U.S. publishers are interested in Ortega’s biography. Ortega is in New York discussing the matter.

“It will be personal, not polemical,” Paul S. Reichler, a longtime adviser to the Sandinistas, told The New York Times, “although it will of course talk about the triumph of the Sandinista revolution, its confrontations with the United States and the recent elections.” Reichler said the plan is for Ortega to have a manuscript ready by September, 1991, for publication in 1992.
