King Of Cuba
£12.74
- Paperback - Sandstone
El Comandante, an ageing Castro-like dictator, shambles about his mansion in Havana, visits a dying friend, tortures hunger strikers and grapples with the stale end of his life that is as devoid of grandeur as his nearly 60-year-old revolution. Over in Florida, Goyo Herrera, a Miami exile in his 80s, plots revenge against the same El Comandante whom he blames for stealing his beloved, ruining his homeland and taking his father's life. Shifting between the two men with resonance and humour, Cristina Garcia's novel plumbs the passions and realities of these two Cubas - on the island, and off. -
