Before Night Falls: A Memoir
Reinaldo Arenas,
Dolores M. Koch
$18.00
$16.74
Cuban author Reinaldo Arenas tells his story of growing up impoverished in the Cuban countryside and the oppression he endured as a gay man and an artist through Castro's revolution. Many parts of his memoir are exaggerated (full disclosure, tons of explicit sex content in this book), but these exaggerations are meant to spit in the face of the regime.

Tom Gjelten
