The presentation will take place at 11:00 a.m. local time on Calle de Madera, on one side of Plaza de Armas, across from the City Museum in Old Havana.

This work is a collection of “short stories in which poetry, absurdity, and strangeness combine with a surprising economy of means to showcase the craft of a storyteller,” according to the ICL.

The author began writing this book in the 1980s—it took him about thirteen years to complete—and “in a way, he sets it up as a small tribute to Franz Kafka and Julio Cortazar, his two cult writers,” the press release states.
