- Fiction. Latino/Latina Studies. Translated by Cola Franzen and Dick Cluster, these renegade stories by Cuban writer Antonio Jose Ponte are set in Cuba during the hard times following the collapse of the Soviet Union.

While living in this state of suspension, Ponte's dynamic characters create their own startling worlds.
