Travel to Cuba in the company of its finest writers and gain an
understanding of its remarkable mystique. The seventeen stories in
this volume-some of which appear in English for the first time-will
take you on an odyssey through the country's rich past to its
dynamic present, where it is poised at the brink of immense change.
Arranged by the areas of Cuba they illuminate, these stories offer
up a rich literary banquet.
Included is a piece by Reinaldo Arenas of "Before Night Falls"
fame (now a major motion picture).
