Visiones del exilio: Para leer a Zoe Valdes is a study on the
narrative work of Cuban writer Zoe Valdes. Valdes, who left the
island in 1995 and currently lives in Paris, has published poetry,
short stories, and novels. She also writes for Spanish and French
newspapers and is an important cultural icon of Cuban exile. A
comprehensive study beginning with a general overview of Cuba
during the 20th century, as well as a biographical summary of
Valdes, Visiones de exilio offers a classification of her
narratives, paying special attention to what she calls her
"sexagonia" (a series of six novels focused on the Cuban experience
in Cuba and abroad). Her autobiography is of extensive importance
to her work, which contributes to her exploration of different
issues in her narratives, from cubanness to gender, race and the
presence of other artistic expressions in her writing such as film,
music, and painting. This study concludes with an insightful
analysis of Valdes as an icon against Castro's regime in Cuba,
thanks to the importance of her cultural capital and public image.
