Reviews
Part of Duke's excellent series of Latin Amer­ica readers, [ The Cuba Reader ] weaves together the writings, experiences, and analyses of indi­viduals from an array of backgrounds and perspectives, giving voice to a diverse multitude of Cubans (and non-Cuban observers) across more than five hundred years of history., One of the great strengths of this collection is the manner in which, through perceptive selection of writings..., we readers are offered the opportunity to process for ourselves how it can be that an achievement as promising as the overthrow of a repressive dictatorship ... could turn out so badly., [An] ambitious and impressive anthology, a sweeping collection of source materials by and about Cubans both on the island and living in other countries. The editors . . . have wisely chosen songs, paintings, photographs, short stories, essays, speeches, government reports, cartoons and newspaper articles that span Cuban history. . . . What The Cuba Reader does extraordinarily well is to reveal the nuances and complexity of the Cuban experience. All shades of politics are here, and they infuse Cuban dance, music, film and religion., [A] crash course in Cuban history. If you're looking for a single (hefty) volume to get you up to speed about the past 500 years of Cuban politics and culture, this is it., T he Cuba Reader: History, Culture, Politics by Aviva Chomsky was really insightful for me. It has all these essays from people who lived in Cuba at different times, including a priest who came with the Spanish, so you get a different perspective on the attacks on native people and their resistance., The Cuba Reader is an indispensable book for scholars interested in Cuban, Caribbean, and Latin American history.... The editors' judicious selection of classic primary sources, complemented by lesser-known contemporary accounts ... make this an ideal volume for classroom use or for the lay reader with an interest in Cuba's past and present., "T he Cuba Reader: History, Culture, Politics by Aviva Chomsky was really insightful for me.

If you're looking for a single (hefty) volume to get you up to speed about the past 500 years of Cuban politics and culture, this is it." -- Julie Schwietert Collazo The Guardian "For a solid introduction to all things Cuban, start with this edited collection of primary sources, including speeches, articles, songs, poems, book excerpts, and other publications spanning 500 years of Cuban history and culture." -- Boyd Childress Library Journal "This is a balanced, far-ranging, equitable, and insightful book, and the suggestions for further reading list and comprehensive index add to its usability. Altogether an essential addition to any Latin American studies collection. . . . Highly recommended. Lower-division undergraduates through faculty." -- L. K.
