Beskrivelse
Orwell in Cuba chronicles journalist Frederick Lavoie's attempts to unravel the motives behind the mysterious appearance of a new translation of George Orwell's 1984, formerly taboo in Cuba, just ahead of the country's twenty-fifth International Book Fair. Lavoie works to make sense of how Cubans feel about the past, present, and future of their island - and how the political regime is adapting, or not, to life in the twenty-first century. His intertwined quests give readers the unique experience of following a suspenseful trail while at the same time becoming increasingly familiar with Cubans' relationship to the regime and their strategies for coping with the island's often challenging living conditions.
