Summary of So?ar en cubano
EL BESTSELLER NACIONAL"Deslumbrante...Extraordinaria...Garc?a se revela como una nueva escritora m gica...Poderosa, visionaria...Totalmente original."
--Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times
"MARAVILLOSA...UNA NOVELA JOYA... La novela So?ar en cubano est escrita maravillosamente en un lenguaje que es sucesivamente l nguido y sensual, brusco y sorprendente. Como el lenguaje cristalino de Louise Erdrich, destilado de im genes que son nuevas en nuestra literature americana pero antiguas en esta regi?n, Cristina Garc?a ha destilado una nueva lengua de los fragmentos salvados por medio del trastorno...Es [la] magia ordinaria en la novela de Garc?a, y el sentido propio de lirismo de sus personajes, los que le dan una buena acogida a su trabajo como la ?ltima se?al de que la literatura americana tiene su propia descendiente hibrida de la escuela latinoamericana."
--Thulani Davis, The New York Times Book Review
"Conmovedora y perspicaz...Habla de una familia que est dividida pol?tica y geogr ficamente por la revoluci?n cubana...[y] de las hendiduras que se abren en cada lado: En Cuba, entre una abuela que es una partidaria fervorosa de Castro y una hija que se refugia en un culto de santer?a afrocubano; en Am?rica, entre otra hija, agresivamente en contra de Castro y su propia hija, la artista punk y rebelde, que se burla de su obsesi?n...El realismo es exquisito."
--Richard Eder,Los Angeles Times
"Extraordinaria...Un tejido intrincado de eventos dram ticos con lo sobrenatural y lo c?smico...Evocadora y opulenta...Una narrativa rica y obsesionante, una voz nueva y excelente en la ficci?n contempor nea."
--Jackie Jones, San Francisco Chronicle
"Impresionante...Su historia se trata de tres generaciones de mujeres cubanas y sus reacciones por separado a la revoluci?n. Su haza?a particular es la de contaria en un estilo tan caluroso y dulce como los 'aromas continuos de la vainilla y la almendra,' tan r?tmico como la m?sica de Beny Mor?."
--Amelia Weiss, Time
