Amazon.com description: Product Description: Nirvana del Risco es la primera heroina negra cubana que se muestra desnuda, abierta y descarnada ante lo que por prejuicios muchos esconden: la bisexualidad, el racismo, la politica, el miedo y la cercana intimidad con el enemigo. Hija de la generacion de los anos 60 y rebelde protagonista habanera en los 2000, recorre el camino entre lo prohibido y lo sagrado, revelando asi ocultas recetas asentadas en una cultura afrocubana (Regla de Ocha). Rituales que van desde la dinastica brujeria cubana, aquella que pocos aceptan abiertamente y se usa en rituales y conjuros cotidianos, hasta el complejo equilibrismo entre raza, sexo, politica y religion. / Nirvana del Risco is the first black Cuban woman who openly and fearlessly confronts the prejudices that many of her compatriots hide: homophobia, racism, political mistrust, fear and a certain intimacy with the enemy. A daughter of the 60s generation and a rebel in Havana in the 2000s, she explores the path between the forbidden and the sacred, revealing the occult spells that lie deep within Afro Cuban culture. Revealing rituals passed down through dynasties of Cuban magic, which few openly accept, as she explores the complex balance between race, sex, politics and religion.
