Book Description

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).

Ann Louise Bardach is the author of the forthcoming book Troubled Waters: The Havana-Miami Showdown (Random House). She has written extensively about Cuba for Vanity Fair, Conde Nast Traveler, the New Republic, the Washington Post, the New York Times, and other publications. She lives in Carpinteria, California.
