Synopsis: EL BESTSELLER NACIONAL • “Impresionante . . . Su historia se trata de tres generaciones de mujeres cubanas y sus reacciones por separado a la revolución. Su hazaña particular es la de contaria en un estilo tan caluroso y dulce como los ‘aromas continuos de la vainilla y la almendra,’ tan rítmico como la música de Beny Moré.”—Amelia Weiss, Time 

El celebrado libro de Cristina García cuenta la sobrecogedora y agridulce historia de una familia que experimenta la revolución de un país y las revelaciones que ello conlleva. La vidas de Celia del Pino y de su esposo, sus hijas y nietas reflejan el realismo mágico de Cuba, un paisaje de belleza y miseria, idealismo y corrupción. Soñar en cubano es “una obra que posee tanto la intimidad de un relato de Chejov como la magia alucinatoria de una novela de García Márquez” (The New York Times).
