Description:
|
WILL BE MADE INTO A FILM DIRECTED BY ANDY GARCIA AND STARRING DUSTIN HOFFMAN Cabrera Infante has written the screenplay for the film himself. Filled with puns, wordplay, lists upon lists, and Sternean typography - such as the section entitled "Some Revelations", which consists of several blank pages - this novel is a more modern, sexier, funnier, Cuban Ulysses. Centring on the recollections of a man separated from both is country and his youth, Cabrera Infante creates an enchanting vision of life and the many colourful characters found in steamy Havana's pre-Castro cabaret society.
