Nancy Morejon is the best known and most widely translated woman poet of post-revolutionary Cuba and regularly tours the United States. Her work addresses contemporary issues of ethnicity, gender, history, politics, and Afro-Cuban identity. Alice Walker has received numerous awards for her fiction, non-fiction and poetry, including the Pulitzer Prize in 1983 for The Color Purple.
The hypocrisy of these five mens imprisonment, the brutality, of their punishment, and their humanity in the face of such injustice, emerges from these pages slowly, as the reader gains a glimpse of how ordinary families cope in extraordinary circumstances.
