O knihe
Moncada is one of the first words young
Cuban biologist Felipe Triana learned as he was growing up.
He was taught to say the word, and he was told that it was
not just for him, but for every Cuban. Felipe, like many of
the other young Cubans, has known nothing but the
fifty-year-old revolution which still controls their lives
but offers them less and less. An unconventional diplomatic
story, Moncada follows the lives of Felipe and six other
ordinary Cubans in the week leading up to the major
revolutionary festival of Moncada that's celebrated on July
26. As the day of the festivities draws near, Felipe
examines the course of his life in this country. From the
economy, to the living conditions, baseball, popular Cuban
culture, and the history of the revolution, Moncada presents
the essence of present-day Cuba through the eyes of those
living there. It gives flavor to a country whose people are
deprived of expressing themselves.
