Three Trapped Tigers (Latin American Literature)

About this book

Cabrera Infantes masterpiece Three Trapped Tigers is one of the most playful books to reach the U.S. from Cuba. Filled with puns wordplay lists upon lists and Sternean typography--such as the section entitled "Some Revelations " which consists of several blank pages--this novel has been praised as a more modern sexier funnier Cuban Ulysses. Centering on the recollections of a man separated from both his country and his youth Cabrera Infante creates an enchanting vision of life and the many colorful characters found in steamy Havanas pre-Castro cabaret society.
