Book Synopsis
This biography is the first comprehensive exploration of the life and works of Guillermo Cabrera Infante.

Trade Review
This book shines in the details; Souza had his subject's cooperation, and some periods in the author's life have now been filled in with information that goes beyond mere word play. . . . at times, one has the impression of eavesdropping in the writer's London apartment. Those interested in the writer's craft will find useful information on his short stories, creative process, and film scripts that have played such an important role in his career. * Choice *
