ENGLISH DESCRIPTION The great posthumous novel by Guillermo Cabrera Infante. This novel, a worthy successor to Tres tristes tigres / Three Trapped Tigers and La Habana para un infante difunto / Infante's Inferno, puts an end to the fresco of novels in which Guillermo Cabrera Infante portrayed pre-revolutionary Havana as only a lover of the city could. The plot tells about the passion between an overpowering teenager and a film critic many years her elder, but the subject matter is not the corruption of innocence, much less the abuse of power. Going along to the rhythm of Cuban music and a wealth of cinematographic references, the author dives into the depths of desire to narrate an impossible amour fou that finds its counterpoint in an energetic and vigorous use of language.", "item_img_path" : "https://covers4.booksamillion.com/covers/bam/8/46/635/287/8466352872_b.jpg", "price_data" : { "retail_price" : "12.95", "online_price" : "12.95", "our_price" : "12.95", "club_price" : "12.95", "savings_pct" : "0", "savings_amt" : "0.00", "club_savings_pct" : "0", "club_savings_amt" : "0.00", "discount_pct" : "10", "store_price" : "" } }
