En su libro de memorias Nieve en La Habana, el cual ganó el Premio Nacional del Libro en 2003, Carlos Eire narra su niñez en Cuba en la época del triunfo de la revolución y la llegada al poder de Fidel Castro. Esa historia termina en 1962, en el avión que lleva a Carlos y a su hermano desde La Habana a Miami para comenzar una nueva vida, como sucedió a miles de niños cubanos. Pasarían años antes de que Carlos volviera a ver a su madre. Y nunca más volvería a ver a su padre, por quien sentía una verdadera devoción. Miami y Mis Mil Muertes sigue el cuento en el momento en que aquel avión aterriza y Carlos comienza una nueva vida impulsado por sus miedos y esperanzas. Enseguida se da cuenta de que para llegar a ser americano tendrá que “morir” el Carlos cubano que hasta ahora ha sido. Se enfrenta al eterno dilema del inmigrante que debe aprender inglés, ir a una escuela americana y descifrar un futuro incierto: está en el país de las oportunidades, pero aún no es capaz de aprovecharlas. A pesar de la dura realidad de los hogares adoptivos donde ha de vivir, el muchacho se abre paso, dejando atrás cualquier vestigio de su vida pasada hasta el punto de cambiar su nombre y convertirse en Charles. Miami y Mis Mil Muertes es un exorcismo y una oda a esa experiencia, es un homenaje a la renovación, a los momentos de la vida en que tenemos la certeza de haber muerto y, de alguna manera milagrosa, haber vuelto a nacer.

In this one-of-a-kind volume, Iraida López explores various narratives of return by those who left Cuba as children or adolescents. Including memoirs, semi-autobiographical fiction, and visual arts, many of these accounts feature a physical arrival on the island while others depict a metaphorical or vicarious experience by means of fictional characters or childhood reminiscences. As two-way migration increases in the post-Cold War period, many of these narratives put to the test the boundaries of national identity. Through a critical reading of works by Cuban American artists and writers like María Brito, Ruth Behar, Carlos Eire, Cristina García, Ana Mendieta, Gustavo Pérez Firmat, Ernesto Pujol, Achy Obejas, and Ana Menéndez, López highlights the affective ties as well as the tensions underlying the relationship between returning subjects and their native country. Impossible Returns also looks at how Cubans still living on the island depict returning émigrés in their own narratives, addressing works by Jesús Díaz, Humberto Solás, Carlos Acosta, Nancy Alonso, Leonardo Padura, and others. Blurring the lines between disciplines and geographic borders, this book underscores the centrality of Cuba for its diaspora and bears implications for other countries with widespread populations in exile.

Un país para narrar nos invita a adentrarnos en la exploración de un complejo y muy diverso universo narrativo —poco familiar para el lector cubano— desde la convicción de que conocer estas obras nos enriquece. Hace décadas viene desarrollándose fuera de la Isla un corpus literario escrito por cubanos o sus descendientes que aborda temas como la experiencia del exilio, la difícil adaptación a un medio cultural y lingüístico ajeno, el desarraigo, el problema de la identidad, y otros. Se trata de varias generaciones de escritores y escritoras cuya obra no puede ser pasada por alto al escribir la historia literaria de la nación. Respaldado por una sólida investigación y un vasto caudal de lecturas, este libro nos ofrece diversas interpretaciones e hipótesis, y hallaremos en él, sobre todo, una incitación a indagar más y abrirnos a nuevos modos de comprensión de nuestra literatura.

Este libro se mueve por el Atlántico negro del Caribe transcultural y relacional —mismo y distinto a la vez—. Su materia central es la memoria «negra», cruzada históricamente por conflictos, resistencias, racismos y traumas. Desde esta perspectiva, y desde la del cronotopo del camino bajtiniano, el autor explora cómo se ligan a los traumas las historias de vida en ocho obras autobiográficas publicadas por figuras clave de la esfera artística e intelectual cubana: Nicolás Guillén, Elvira Cervera, Georgina Herrera, Lourdes Casal, Sara Gómez, Carlos Moore, Pedro Pérez Sarduy y Carlos Acosta. Pero antes de entrar en materia, le dedica un capítulo a la recepción crítica cubana en torno a lo autobiográfico; otro a los presupuestos de la autobiografía, las memorias, el «testimonio» y la heterobiografía; y uno a la génesis y la evolución de la tradición autobiográfica cubana, que ni escasea ni es corta ni tampoco perezosa. Como colofón, los lectores podrán acceder a un registro bibliográfico de las escrituras y narrativas de vida producidas por afrodescendientes cubanos, que es (mucho) más de lo que se imagina y conoce.

An evocative and unforgettable memoir from award-winning journalist Carlos Frías about his journey to Cuba where he retraces his family's history and encounters the realities of Cuba under Fidel Castro's rule. Carlos Frías, an award-winning journalist and the American-born son of Cuban exiles, grew up hearing about his parents' homeland only in parables. Their Cuba, the one they left behind four decades ago, was ethereal. It existed, for him, only in their anecdotes, and in the family that remained in Cuba—merely ghosts on the other end of a telephone. Until Fidel Castro fell ill. Sent to Cuba by his newspaper as the country began closing to foreign journalists in August 2006, Frías begins the secret journey of a lifetime—twelve days in the land of his parents. That experience led to this evocative, spectacular, and unforgettable memoir. Take Me With You is written through the unique eyes of a first-generation Cuban-American seeing the forbidden country of his ancestry for the first time. Frías provides a fresh view of Cuba, devoid of overt political commentary, focusing instead on the gritty, tangible lives of the people living in Castro's Cuba. Frías takes in the island nation of today and attempts to reconstruct what the past was like for his parents, retracing their footsteps, searching for his roots, and discovering his history. The story creates lasting and unexpected ripples within his family on both sides of the Florida Straits—and on the author himself.
