Summary: el techo desaparece y naturalmente flotas...
Review: en mi opinion creo que esta obra se acerca mas a lo que en realidad la palabra realidad significa, en contraste con la realidad que nuestros propios sentidos pudieran percibir jamas. Mientras uno va violando una por una la intimidad de estas paginas, se envuelve en esa utopÃa que incluso actualmente viven los cubanos, ( cuando digo eutopÃa me refiero, a esa vision del mundo que tienen los cubanos, que viven en un lugar tan personal que solo existe por ellos y para ellos), porque el escribe poniendo por supuesto en primer plano su propia existencia, su propio recorrido y mas que nada sus sentimientos; Pero dejando en foco un segundo plano, que nos da una participación lo suficientemente intima como para pasar desapercibidos en las calles de la habana de aquellos años que Reynaldo Arenas describe y siente con tanta sinceridad.Queda sobre entendido, la calidad de la obra y sobre todo la calidad del autor.

Summary: Before it's too late ...
Review: This autobiography is an excellent piece of literature and history. This is my second look into Cuban literature (the first piece being "Mascaras" by Leonardo Padura Fuentes). I now wish to read more about Cuban writers, especially those in exile. Reinaldo Arenas vividly recounts his life in this autobiography. I do not know of the quality of the translations, therefore I do not know if the magic of the author's words are lost in the translation. If you are fluent in Spanish, I recommend you read the text in its original form. I think it is important we all take the time to open our hearts and minds ...

Summary: Reinaldo Arenas a Master Story Teller!
Review: This book is one of the best books I have ever read! Arenas is a master story teller! I love it when I read a book and the author is able - through words - to transport me to that time and place. I could feel his happiness, his pain, I could smell what he was smelling, see what he was seeing . . . I was by his side through his tribulations in Cuba. I have to admit that I was saddened when I reached the end page. His use of the Spanish language is masterful and colorful - - you almost can taste every word he uses.
