Mea Cuba by G Cabrera Infante
Guillermo Cabrera Infante has written novels, stories, critical essays, articles and screenplays, and has lectured at universities from Cambridge to Chicago. He grew up in Cuba under the dictator Batista, knew Che Guevara and Fidel Castro, and now lives in England as an exile. This work contains a collection of his writings on Cuba from 1968 to 1992, exploring the nature of the Cuban Revolution and - as Cabrera Infante sees it - its evil genius, Fidel Castro.
Guillermo Cabrera Infante was born in Gibara, Cuba in 1929. He has written novels, stories, critical essays and screenplays, and has lectured at universities throughout the world. He grew up in Cuba under the dictator Batista, knew Guevara (whom he calls Chaos Guevara) and Fidel Castro personally, and lives now in England as an exile. Hailed by the Sunday Times as 'the most outstanding living Cuban novelist', he is the author of Three Trapped Tigers, Infante's Inferno, Holy Smoke, View of Dawn in the Tropics and Writes of Passage, and a collection of film criticism (written from 1954 to 1960, before his exile, under the pseudonym G. Cain), A Twentieth Century Job.
