Product Description

Synopsis
WILL BE MADE INTO A FILM DIRECTED BY ANDY GARCIA AND STARRING DUSTIN HOFFMAN Cabrera Infante has written the screenplay for the film himself. Filled with puns, wordplay, lists upon lists, and Sternean typography - such as the section entitled "Some Revelations", which consists of several blank pages - this novel is a more modern, sexier, funnier, Cuban Ulysses. Centring on the recollections of a man separated from both is country and his youth, Cabrera Infante creates an enchanting vision of life and the many colourful characters found in steamy Havana's pre-Castro cabaret society.

From the Publisher
It is Marlowe's privilege to reintroduce G. Cabrera Infante!

FROM SUSAN SONTAG: "It now seems utterly extraordinary that anyone can write brilliant prose in more than one language; we marvel at a Nabokov, a Beckett, a Cabrera Infante."

FROM THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE: "A writer to be reckoned with...raw, powerful, and unique."

FROM TIME: "It is clear that TTT can stand on the same shelf with Gabriel Garcia Marquez's very dissimilar One Hundred Years of Solitude, and the provocative obscurities of Jorge Luis Borges."

FROM THE NEW YORK REVIEW OF BOOKS: "With Three Trapped Tigers he entered the front rank of Latin American novelists. The book belongs with Cortazar's Hopscotch, Garcia Marquez's One Hundred Years of Solitude and Donoso's The Obscure Bird of Night."

FROM THE NEW YORK TIMES: "A remarkable book." --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
