Arranged by the poet himself, this bilingual edition for Spanish and English readers brings together some of the most powerful works from a critical figure in the Santiaguero movement. With a distinctively Cuban voice international subjects such as Auschwitz-Birkenau, John Lennon, Shakespeare, Sherlock Holmes, and Louis Armstrong are addressed, showing a keen interest and a wide knowledge in literary matters that extend beyond Cuban culture. The result is a glimpse at a vibrant literary tradition seen by few outside of Cuba.
