Jorge Edwards, a Chilean writer and diplomat, was his country’s first envoy to Cuba after diplomatic relations between the two countries were restored in 1970. Following his arrival in Havana he was witness to one of the most crucial periods of the Cuban Revolution, when early dreams and hopes were giving way to economic realities. His book is a record of and testimony to that time.
