La antropología poética se ha definido siempre por un fuerte carácter testimonial. En In your face, papi!, esa sinceridad extrema y a bocajarro de la primera persona, que concede un grado de autenticidad, de desgarro interior de lo vivido, provoca una catarsis en el lector, a quien no le importa que le digan a qué generación pertenece, sino sencillamente identificarse y revivir lo cubano a través de la experiencia de otro ser como él. Dicho de otra manera, a este libro, para ser más cubano, sentir y explicar la cubanía, solo le falta la gestualidad, porque lo tiene todo: la alegría y la tristeza, el amor y el sufrimiento; el dolor, el miedo, la culpa y el remordimiento; la esperanza, la cordura y la locura, la gracia y hasta el acento. Este libro es una colección de comentarios y artículos sobre política, arte y sociedad civil publicados por la autora durante sus últimos quince años vividos fuera de Cuba.

Winner of the Royal Palm Award As a child, Leini stands ready to do anything to win her mother Mira's love. This effort costs her the sight in one eye and as a result, causes her to endure bullying from kids her own age. As a teenager, with her Grandpa's help, she undergoes one more surgery to straighten her eye, but the psychological scar of the events of her childhood remain. Leini struggles to break free of Mira's tyranny by leaving her native Helsinki to study psychology at Geneva University. A few years later, married, herself about to become a mother, she is determined with her own children not to repeat Mira's behavior. With the help of a psychiatrist, she labors through the pains of past hurts to become a nurturing and loving mother and wife, as well as a successful professional, as she grows from victim to victor over adversity. Can her efforts lead her to the one thing she needs to discover the most - the ability to forgive her mother? PRAISE FOR THE WOODEN CHAIR: The Wooden Chair is a beautifully written period piece. When I began reading, I didn't stop until I turned the last page. Ms. Golay's descriptions are so powerful, the characters so true to life, they're unforgettable. Leini's journey from an emotionally abused child to a self-confident woman should be read by all who've suffered any form of abuse and persevered. Quite the most powerful novel I've read in years." --Suzanne Barr, Author of Fatal Kiss The Wooden Chair took hold of me in the first paragraphs and never let go. I kept expecting-and wanting-someone to rescue Leini from her wildly unpredictable mother who told Leini she wasn't wanted. Leini's disappointments and longings as she faced serious issues for such a young girl kept me engrossed. I wept at Rayne Golay's vivid descriptions of Leini coping in an unfair world, and I rejoiced at her remarkable quest to change, at her acceptance as she grew into adulthood. Rayne's high quality writing in The Wooden Chair makes it an emotionally charged read, a compelling story of one woman's valiant struggle to grow away from past hurts. A triumphant story --Elizabeth (Bettie) Wailes, Author and Editor

Sixteen-year-old Madison Michaels has never been in love, and that’s fine by her. Having an exceedingly overprotective father doesn’t leave much wiggle room for boys, let alone love. Madison’s father, Pablo Perez, dutifully enforces Rule #4: Stay Away from Boys! Everything changes, however, when new student Ben Warren shows up in Madison’s English class. With his good looks and kind-hearted ways, he captures Madison’s heart. Unfortunately, Madison’s newfound feelings have to be kept a secret. A secret from her adoptive twin sisters, Caro and Tina; her friend, Nina Abbott, who has fallen for Ben too; and best friends Elena Mercado and Mari Rosales, (especially Mari) who believes Ben is a troublemaker from whom everyone should stay away. As Madison’s feelings for Ben grow, so do her lies. However, lies, like corks, eventually float to the surface. And when they do, all key players are there to witness it, including Nina who, obsessed with Pride and Prejudice, believes that Ben is her “Mr. Darcy” and Madison now her “frenemy.” Madison knows she can’t fall in love. Madison knows she can’t be with Ben. Madison knows better, but her heart does not.

Olad was the first-born son of the second son in the line of Kane, a prestigious lineage. His life was simple while he was growing up, but as he grew into a man, he realized his future was fated. His cousin, the first-born of a first-born, should have inherited the leadership and responsibilities of the clan. But, his future was also fated. His life would not continue within the clan. That knowledge had been known since they were both toddlers. So, Olad would become the leader of the people, and the keeper of the way, the law. He would not decline the position as his uncle, and then his cousin had done. Olad had accepted the position. He followed his ancient great-grandfather as he guided Olad's life and molded him into the man he would become; the clan's leader, healer, and shaman. But, he would need help. His great-grandfather was too old to offer very much more than his sage advice. Olad needed someone to walk by his side, to help him, to give him strength. But, who?

With each day, Cumba feels more confident in his new surroundings, but he continues to wonder: Will his family ever be whole again? Or will they remain just out of reach, ninety miles across the sea?
