Description

Hermoso y provocador conjunto de narraciones, donde se recorre un arco muy amplio, que va de escenarios cubanos actuales, o más alejados en el tiempo, (como los llamados «Déjà Vou» o  «Brindis») a otros que no sólo nos trasladan a Europa, sino a medios, situaciones y épocas como las del escritor Emilio Salgari, o el pintor Rembrandt, o la enemistad surgida entre Hemingway y Dos Passos, amigo y traductor del segundo, a causa del fusilamiento de Luis Robles durante una de las purgas de la Guerra Civil Española. La prosa de Morelli es siempre adecuada y exacta, y en este libro sorprende, además, por su gran versatilidad. La hechura del libro no deja que desear, pues se corresponde en sobriedad y buen gusto al contenido. Merece destacarse el atractivo del diseño de portada.

Robles was the friend and translator of the latter. Morelli’s prose is here as always is appropriate and exacting, and, in this book, the reader is taken by his great versatility. The attractiveness of the cover design should also be noted.
