Overview
En estas memorias comenzadas nada mĆ”s exiliarse de Cuba, Guillermo Cabrera Infante describe con lujo de detalles su juventud en la efervescente isla de fines de los aƱos cincuenta y principios de los sesenta. La Habana, el cine, el sexo, la mĆŗsica y la llegada de la RevoluciĆ³n conviven en un relato de fondo gozoso, aunque teƱido por el dolor de la distancia. Proyecto inacabado a la muerte del autor y en cierto modo inacabable, Cuerpos divinos vuelve sobre los temas claves de Cabrera Infante, pero les aƱade el fervor testimonial de quien aspira a recordarlo todo para impedir que su mundo privado caiga en el olvido.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
Guillermo Cabrera Infanteās passionate fictionalized memoir, recreating all the vibrancy of his younger years in Cuba.
In a memoir he began right after being exiled from Cuba, Guillermo Cabrera Infante details his youth on the fizzing island in the late fifties and early sixties. Havana, movies, sex, music, the coming of the Revolution, it all coexists in a story with joyful backgrounds, even if tainted by the pain of such remoteness. An incomplete project up to the authorās death, and somewhat endless, Heavenly Bodies retakes the key subjects in Cabrera Infanteās work, adding the testimonial earnestness of someone aiming to remember so his private world doesnāt fall into oblivion.
