Los Pasos PerdidosCarpentier, Alejo
Your Satisfaction is Guaranteed:
Many of Cuba's intellectuals embraced the Castro regime, but Guillermo Cabrera Infante, who criticized it, was condemned as a traitor and forced into exile. From this bitter experience, which included his hospitalization for mental collapse, came the vivid sketches of Cuban life that made up the acclaimed "View of Dawn from the Tropics". In exile he revised this work into "Three Trapped Tigers", a savage comedy that catapulted him into the first rank of Latin American novelist.
"One of the most inventively humorous novels in the Spanish language."
New York Review of Books
Review:"Depicts the gaudy, carnivalesque life of Havana in the days before Castro. Very sexy, replete with puns, wordplay and literary allusions...this is one of the most enjoyable books of the Latin literature boom."
