Book summary


Yocandra is a young woman torn by her love for Cuba. She learns that for woman to survive in the world of Communist machismo, she has to use all she has: her body, her wits, and most of all her ability to transform disillusionment into a wonderful story. Attempting to use each of these methods as a way to escape, she always returns to the grim realities of the country she adores, the country she knows is smothering her. All of this is "in the manner of island women."


Media reviews


"Written with fierce rage and earthy truthfulness without losing any humor or liveliness."
