Hidden behind a cloak of exotic mystery, Cuba is virtually
unknown to American citizens. G. Cabrera Infante -- in Infante's
Inferno and several of his other novels -- allows readers to peek
behind the curtain surrounding this island and see the vibrant life
that existed there before Fidel Castro's regime. Detailing the
sexual education and adventures of the author, Infante's Inferno is
a lush, erotic, funny book that provides readers with insight into
what it was like to grow up in pre-revolutionary Havana. Viewing
every girl as a potential lover, and the movies as a place both for
entertainment and potential sexual escapades, Cabrera Infante
captures the adolescent male mindset with a great deal of fun and
self-consciousness. With his hallmark of puns and wordplay --
excellently translated by Suzanne Jill Levine -- Cabrera Infante
has hilariously updated the Don Juan myth in a tropical
setting.
