Description:
A sharp and topical insight into contemporary Cuba based on the timeless story of one man's trials and triumphs.
Che's grandson describes the daily life of a Cuban who is trying to find his way within the restrictions imposed by the regime. He yearns for freedom, for a way out of hunger. And he is not the only one who dreams of a better life. Suddenly, a few Cubans hijack a rickety ferry to escape, an ultimate act of desperation. But the Cuban police stop them. Never before has the feeling of not being free been so tangible. The first spontaneous demonstration breaks out. Cuba falters and something snaps in the main character. What is Che's revolution worth, if you are collectively imprisoned in your own country?
“A brilliant writer. An unforgettable novel.” - Jon Lee Anderson, The New Yorker
