For fifty-five years U.S.-Cuban relations were couched in terms of
the Cold War, often pitting Cubans in the diaspora against Cubans
who remained in their homeland. This collection of Cuban and
Cuban-American writing and art celebrates the informal networks
that Cubans in both countries have maintained through artistic,
academic, family, and other ties. This book brings together for the
first time in English Cuban voices of the second generation, both
on the island and in the diaspora. The multivocal and multigenre
collection includes both scholarly and creative writing and an
impressive range of visual art. Bridges to Cuba/Puentes a Cuba
opens a window onto the meaning of nationality, transnationalism,
and homeland in our time.
