âImpressive . . . [Cristina GarcÃaâs] story is about three generations of Cuban women and their separate responses to the revolution. Her special feat is to tell it in a style as warm and gentle as the âsustaining aromas of vanilla and almond,â as rhythmic as the music of Beny Moré.ââTime  Cristina GarcÃaâs acclaimed book is the haunting, bittersweet story of a family experiencing a countryâs revolution and the revelations that follow. The lives of Celia del Pino and her husband, daughters, and grandchildren mirror the magical realism of Cuba itself, a landscape of beauty and poverty, idealism and corruption. Dreaming in Cuban is âa work that possesses both the intimacy of a Chekov story and the hallucinatory magic of a novel by Gabriel GarcÃa Márquezâ (The New York Times). In celebration of the twenty-fifth anniversary of the novelâs original publication, this edition features a new introduction by the author.Praise for Dreaming in Cuban âRemarkable . . . an intricate weaving of dramatic events with the supernatural and the cosmic . . . evocative and lush.ââSan Francisco Chronicle  âCaptures the pain, the distance, the frustrations and the dreams of these family dramas with a vivid, poetic prose.ââThe Washington Post  âBrilliant . . . With tremendous skill, passion and humor, GarcÃa just may have written the definitive story of Cuban exiles and some of those they left behind.ââThe Denver Post
