Cubana, the U.S. version of a groundbreaking anthology of women's fiction published in Cuba in 1996, introduces these once-ignored writers to a new audience. Havana editor and author Mirta Yanez has assembled an impressive group of sixteen stories that reveals the strength and variety of contemporary writing by Cuban women - and offers a glimpse inside Cuba during a time of both extreme economic difficulty and artistic renaissance.
