I didn’t remember anything, but really loved this reading - a quick read. Many resonances, thinking about fraught mother-daughter relationships. Beautiful writing. ( ) I think the title is very fitting - I really felt like I was dreaming in Cuban. I was reading the book on Kindle and I tend to read my Kindle books late with lights often already off (I love the screen light and night mode!). It took me very long to get into the book and I was often rereading whole passages either because I didn't remember what happened or I was not sure whether it was in the book or already in my dream. Even after finishing the book, it feels a bit like a dream with big parts I remember only vaguely. It feels like it's made up of glimpses and a lot is left out for us to guess or ponder about. It also leaves a lot of loose threads and doesn't provide any satisfying reconciliations and closures. The portrayal of santería in the novel was one of the most novel aspects for me. It was interesting to learn about the Yoruba deities and religious rituals and how they spread to Cuba together with slaves and mingled with the Catholic religious traditions and beliefs of Christianity. Soñar en cubano es una de las novedades literarias más sorprendentes de los últimos años. A través de cartas , diarios y recuerdos, Cristina García cuenta la historia de cuatro mujeres pertenecientes a una familia dividida política y geográficamente por la revolución Cubana. La narración nos lleva con fluidez del presente al pasado y de Nueva York a La Habana, revelándonos un mundo fascinante, atravesado por la pasión amorosa y las diferencias generacionales, el compromiso político y la fuerza de voluntad, la inestabilidad y la determinación. Mientras Celia, ferviente defensora de Fidel Castro, permanece en Cuba junto a una hija que se une a los cultos afro-cubanos, su otra hija combate el comunismo desde el mostrador de una pastelería de Brooklyn y vive obsesionada con su propia hija, una rebelde artista punk. Pero, a pesar de estos enfrentamientos, madres e hijas se ven unidas por lazos de cariño y ternura que superan toda distancia. Sus tormentosas relaciones culminan en un emocionante encuentro qué les permite descubrir en que lenguaje están soñando. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

A vivid and funny first novel about three generations of a Cuban family divided by conflicting loyalties over the Cuban revolution, set in the world of Havana in the 1970s and '80s and in an emigre neighborhood of Brooklyn. It is a story of immense charm about women and politics, women and witchcraft, women and their men. Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |
