Now back in print, the debut novel that made Zoé Valdés an international literary sensation, the bold, bawdy story of a failed revolution and its discontents.
Skyhorse Publishing, as well as our Arcade, Yucca, and Good Books imprints, are proud to publish a broad range of books for readers interested in fiction—novels, novellas, political and medical thrillers, comedy, satire, historical fiction, romance, erotic and love stories, mystery, classic literature, folklore and mythology, literary classics including Shakespeare, Dumas, Wilde, Cather, and much more. While not every title we publish becomes a New York Times bestseller or a national bestseller, we are committed to books on subjects that are sometimes overlooked and to authors whose work might not otherwise find a home.

Zoé Valdés was born in Cuba in 1959 and has lived in exile in France since 1995. Once dubbed "the Madonna of Cuban literature," she is the acclaimed author of several novels, including Yocandra in the Paradise of Nada and I Gave You All I Had, both published by Arcade. Besides being awarded the 2013 Azorín Prize for The Weeping Woman, she has won the Planeta Prize and the Premio de Novela Ciudad de Torrevieja. She received the Tres Llaves (Three Keys) to the city of Miami in 2001. She lives in Paris.
“"A knockout."” (Miami Herald)
““Zoé Valdés . . . thrills and shocks her readers the way Céline once did. . . . Entertaining and lusty.”” (Oscar Hijeulos)
““A bawdy, erotic, and existential novel . . . Literate and funny, poignant and realistic . . . glows with life and energy.”” (Washington Times)
““A sexually forthright and amusing contemporary Candide.””
