![]() Waiting for Fidel Christopher Hunt TRAVEL NARRATIVE 1998 PAPER 259 PAGES
Where's Fidel? Without so much as a letter of introduction, the author sets out to meet with the man himself. Hunt spends the winter wandering the canefields and back streets of Havana talking to rumrunners, Santerķa practitioners and ordinary Cubans struggling to survive during the "special period" that followed the collapse of the Soviet Union. What results is a camp but vivid portrait of daily life in a place where they're continuously making up their own rules.
