New York. 1990. November 1990. Knopf. 1st American Edition. Very Good in Dustjacket. 0394539109. Translated from the Spanish by Toby Talbot. 127 pages. hardcover. Jacket design by Dan Lloyd Taylor. keywords: Cuba Latin America Caribbean Travel Journalism. FROM THE PUBLISHER-Jacobo Timerman-who has been known worldwide since the publication of his PRISONER WITHOUT A NAME, Gell Without a Number as a champion of freedom, a man who suffered torture at the hands of right-wing Argentine extremists, and who has been a strong opponent of Israel's most recent invasion of Lebanon-now looks critically at Cuba and the regime of Fidel Castro. In this passionate and provocative book Timerman comes painfully to terms with what he saw on his journey through the country that he, like so many others, long idealized as a model socialist state standing up against U.S. intervention in Latin America. He talks to ordinary Cubans in Havana and in remote rural districts, to intellectuals, to university students, to a conclave of writers. And everywhere he confronts unavoidable evidence of the abuse of human rights, the suffocation of civil society, the bankruptcy and hypocrisy of the Cuban political system, the inability of the government to organize an economy that can provide the people with basic necessities. Finally, he speculates on what Cuba will do now that the Soviet Union has abandoned its role as the advance guard of Marxist revolution. A penetrating portrait of a country that-as the Western Hemisphere's last Communist/Marxist state-continues to be of vital political interest to the United States. inventory #14887.
