Synopsis

Night Watch is David William Foster's translation of La noche vigilada, the story of a Cuban writer who has lived all his life under the oppressive Castro regime. Having gone to great lengths to hide his writings, he longs for artistic freedom. He wanders in the streets of Havana at night and eventually becomes involved with a woman he meets at a cafi. After a frightening brush with the police in a raid on the cafi in search of dissidents, the woman and two of her friends persuade him to travel on a raft to the United States. Once in Miami, he becomes part of a large community of exiles as he attempts to adjust to a lifestyle vastly different from what he has known previously.
