"Deslumbrante...Extraordinaria...Garcí 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 Soñ 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 antigua en esta regió n, Cristina Garcí a ha destilado una nueva lengua de los fragmentos salvados por medio del trastorno...Es [la] magia ordinaria en la novela de Garcí a, y el sentido propio de lirismo de sus personajes, los que le dan una buena acogida a su trabajo como la ú ltima señ 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 un familia que est dividida polí tica y geogr ficamente por la revolució 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 santerí a afrocubano; en Amé rica, entre otra hija, agresivamente en contra de Castro y su propia hija, la artista punk y rebelde, que se burla de su obsesió n...El realismo es exquisito."
--Richard Eder, Los Angeles Times
"Extraordinaria...Un tejido intrincado de eventos dram ticos con lo sobrenatural y lo có smico...Evocadora y opulenta...Una narrativa rica y obsesionante, una voz nueva y excelen ficció 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 revolució n. Su hazañ a particular es la de contaria en un estilo tan caluroso y dulce como los 'aromas continuos de la vainilla y la almendra, ' tan rí tmico como la mú sica de Beny Moré ."
--Amelia Weiss, Time
