Sommario/riassunto |
|
Offering an analysis of Cuban literature inside and outside the country's borders, this book looks at the work of three important contemporary Cuban authors: Guillermo Cabrera Infante (1929-2005) and Antonio Benitez-Rojo (1931-2005), who left Cuba, and Leonardo Padura Fuentes (b. 1955), who still lives and writes in Cuba. |
