V. Cubanissimo The politics of Big Cubanissimo (we just made that up) has been and still is a recurring theme at the Miami Book Fair. The first recurrence begins on day one in the form of "A Night with Carlos Alberto Montaner," one of el exilio's favorite neo-cons, who will be discoursing in Spanish about his new book, La Libertad y Sus Enemigos (Freedom and Its Enemies). The man did do his time in a communist prison system, so you gotta respect, even if you are an enemy of right-wingers.
Veteran Miami Herald reporter Don Bohning turns back the Cubanissimo clock with his new book, The Castro Obsession: U.S. Covert Operations Against Cuba, 1959-1965, Saturday, November 19, in Room 7107 at 11:00 a.m. in English and again at noon in Spanish.
For more Cuba-related readings, check the English and Spanish programs at www.miamibookfair.com.
All readings are at the Miami Dade College Wolfson Campus, 300 NE Second Ave., Miami. Visit www.miamibookfair.com for a map.
