Closed For Repairs, July 24, 2007
This review is from: Closed for Repairs (Lannan Translation Selection (Curbstone Press)) (Paperback)
Nancy Alonso's wit, insight and description of the challenges facing the Cuban people today resonantes those who have family and friends living in Cubas today as well as those who care about Cuba. The translation reads so well, it is sometimes feels like one is standing in the sidelines of the stories. What a wonderful series of vignettes.

Compelling glances into modern Cuba, July 24, 2007
This review is from: Closed for Repairs (Lannan Translation Selection (Curbstone Press)) (Paperback)
This is a wonderful collection of stories from contemporary Cuba, both uniquely Cuban yet accessible to anyone. I highly recommend this work and hope that more of Alonso's stories will be translated into English.
