Seeking a window into pre-revolutionary Cuba, she searches for the ghosts of Graham Greene's Havana and the paths walked by other visiting writers (chiefly Ruby Hart Phillips, who covered Cuba from 1937-1961 for the New York Times) hooked on a city where 'every vice was permissible'. Through all these stories and those still being told, 'Our Woman in Havana' weaves an enthralling, atmospheric portrait of this enigmatic country as it teeters, once more, at a historic crossroads" Rainsford, Sarah Elizabeth 27637 Historia de Cuba 1990 6552 Periodismo Historia Cuba 10136 Cuba Política y gobierno Siglo XXI 13042 Cuba Condiciones sociales Siglo XXI lcc BK dpf 0 0 0 0 RR BJB BJB RR 2023-03-07 0 107 F 1788 R158o 2018 00000164751 2023-03-07 00:00:00 1 2023-03-07 BK
