Product Description

Review

"'Shows the heart of Cuba with total honesty... full of passion.' Time Out"


Product Description

Dirty Havana Trilogy was hugely acclaimed for its honest depiction of a Cuban capital characterised by sleaze, sex, poverty and hedonism. In The Insatiable Spiderman we see the return of its anti-hero, who is again prowling the streets of Havana. Pedro Juan's relationship with his wife is in terminal decline. He can no longer face kissing her on the mouth and the trappings of domestic bliss hold no charms for this most restless and predatory of men. Our narrator's interests lie elsewhere: in the infinite possibilities of a chaotic Caribbean city and the many chancers, artists and prostitutes who roam the streets in search of fresh experience. In his inimitably uncompromising and exhilarating style, Pedro Juan Gutierrez again takes the reader on a journey into the underbelly of contemporary Havana - a world of easy sex, hard drinking and humorous anecdote that will be all too recognisable to the Gutierrez connoisseur.

4.0 out of 5 stars A slice of life, 28 Jan 2009
A great little read, certainly not for everyone with it's blunt honesty and sexuality but as an interesting read from someone with a very different cultural background it would be hard to find a book more readable, honest and fun.

If you have read the Dirty Havana Trilogy you will not be disappointed by this book.
