Cecilia Valdes, one of the jewels of nineteenth-century Latin American fiction, displays a thematic complexity that is unique among the novels of its time. Cecilia, the alluring mulata, has come to represent the survival strategies of women of color in a racist society. The novel occupies a prominent place in post-colonial studies about social stratification according to skin color in plantation societies. Villaverde's novel shows the process of modernization that resulted from the boom in the sugar industry, and the transformation of Havana and its social dynamics. The spaces through which the narrator leads us are the same spaces where the story of Cecilia and the history of Havana unfold in parallel lines. A close reading of the novel corroborates the often reiterated perception that Cecilia -alluring, hybrid, complex and tempestuous- is Havana, and is Cuba.

Cecilia Valdés (1882) narra la historia trágica de una mulata cubana, Cecilia Valdés, mujer mestiza que dados su color y belleza será llamada por los galantes habaneros la Virgencita de bronce. En la novela aparece como hija ilegítima de un “caballero” y de una “parda”. Con el paso del tiempo, en el imaginario nacional, representará a la mujer criolla y será un paradigma de lo cubano. Esta mulata sensual, pícara y cautivadora, cortejada por todos los hombres —sin importar su raza o clase— y con aspiraciones de ascender socialmente, frustrada por su condición y su nacimiento se convierte en Pandora o Helena. Alegato antiesclavista, la obra logra describir el ambiente colonial cubano de principios del siglo XiX, las injusticias sociales y especialmente la ignominia de la esclavitud. El autor de la novela, Cirilo Villaverde (1812-1894), ha sido uno de los narradores más prolíficosde la literatura cubana y el precursor de la producción novelesca en la Isla. Su obra, de calidad irregular, se enmarca dentro del romanticismo y está contaminada por sus excesos, sin embargo reflejaun contexto social y humano que trasciende su época y convierte a Villaverde en un autor fundamental del siglo XiX. La literatura realista y de costumbres tiene en sus relatos y novelas un antecedente meritorio. Abolicionista y luego también independentista, Cirilo Villaverde construye en su Cecilia Valdés una trama romántica en cuyo trasfondo está la denuncia social y la condena de la vida del esclavo en el ingenio, de las diferencias de oportunidades para la clase dominante blanca y la de los pobres, mestizos, libertos y esclavos.Demasiados lectores “recordamos” pasajes de Cecilia Valdés diferentes a los narrados por Villaverde. Una amplia bibliografía en torno de la obra y su apropiación desde otras artes deben ser culpables de las transgresiones en-riquecedoras del texto original, cuyas más conocidas inspiraciones serían la zarzuela homónima, escrita por Gonzalo Roig en 1932; y un serial televisivo y una película del director cubano Humberto Solás, en que el entonces joven actor Imanol Arias representa a Leonardo Gamboa, pasional amante que resultará el hermano blanco de Cecilia. ¿En La Habana, quién no ha escuchado decir de una mulata soberbia y hermosa que se parece a Cecilia Valdés? Algunos afirman que, contrario a lo que declaró siempre el autor, Cecilia existió en realidad y por eso logra Villaverde una caracterización tan humana y rica en matices. Lo cierto es que en el cementerio de Colón, en la ciudad de La Habana, existe una tumba que lleva su nombre y que por las fechas inscritas puede coincidir con una mujer contemporánea del novelista. Algún anónimo admirador del mito de la Cecilia, que los periodistas no han podido descubrir, en el aniversario de sus muertes coloca floresen las tumbas de Cirilo Villaverde y Cecilia Valdés.

Cecilia Valdés is arguably the most important novel of 19th century Cuba. Originally published in New York City in 1882, Cirilo Villaverde's novel has fascinated readers inside and outside Cuba since the late 19th century. In this new English translation, a vast landscape emerges of the moral, political, and sexual depravity caused by slavery and colonialism. Set in the Havana of the 1830s, the novel introduces us to Cecilia, a beautiful light-skinned mulatta, who is being pursued by the son of a Spanish slave trader, named Leonardo. Unbeknownst to the two, they are the children of the same father. Eventually Cecilia gives in to Leonardo's advances; she becomes pregnant and gives birth to a baby girl. When Leonardo, who gets bored with Cecilia after a while, agrees to marry a white upper class woman, Cecilia vows revenge. A mulatto friend and suitor of hers kills Leonardo, and Cecilia is thrown into prison as an accessory to the crime. For the contemporary reader Helen Lane's masterful translation of Cecilia Valdés opens a new window into the intricate problems of race relations in Cuba and the Caribbean. There are the elite social circles of European and New World Whites, the rich culture of the free people of color, the class to which Cecilia herself belonged, and then the slaves, divided among themselves between those who were born in Africa and those who were born in the New World, and those who worked on the sugar plantation and those who worked in the households of the rich people in Havana. Cecilia Valdés thus presents a vast portrait of sexual, social, and racial oppression, and the lived experience of Spanish colonialism in Cuba.
