About the Book

El fantasma de Camilo Cienfuegos se adentra en los ambientes del puterío y otros desagües de la noche en La Habana. Graciosamente desmontado de su pedestal y libre de la majomía patriotera, anda y desanda arrellanado en el asiento trasero de un almendrón. Y al parecer le va tan bien haciéndole sombra al chofer que, más adelante, cuando éste convierte su vehículo en una lancha para escapar rumbo a Miami, el fantasma se lo piensa para agregarse a la lista de pasajeros aun sin ser invitado.
Se trata de uno de esos ingenios de la ficción literaria que se nos revelan memorables desde la primera lectura. Bordado a mano, como suele decirse. Pero ni con mucho constituye el único entre los grandes personajes que viajan en El almendrón azul. Este nuevo libro de Pablo J. Socorro es en realidad una vidriera de fascinantes almas en pena. Son representaciones de lo que podríamos llamar lo cubano actual, delineadas todas con mano maestra, y puestas a desfilar a través de un grupo de relatos cuyo denominador común es el diseño riguroso, agudo y pródigo en jocosas ocurrencias.
Elástica y cimbreante como parece ser la posición del autor ante las ortodoxias y los argumentos ontológicos, es también la estructura de El Almendrón Azul. Al primer tiro de ojo, se nos muestra como un libro de cuentos. Pero bien mirado, podríamos asumirlo como una novela.
Tampoco es que sea determinante en lo más mínimo el género dentro del cual encasillemos esta obra. Lo que importa en verdad es su carácter de ingenioso engranaje narrativo con más de una docena de piezas en las que se recrea lo real histórico utilizando como eje una mezcla de ficciones superpuestas, que se enriquecen con las aventuras y desventuras, más los enfoques subjetivos, de los personajes.
Y justo por conducto de tales aventuras, desventuras y enfoques individuales, vemos cómo aquí discurren las esencias del drama de Cuba en las últimas décadas. Siempre en clave existencial más que política. Tal vez pueda asegurarse (yo en particular lo aseguro) que este conjunto de relatos conforma un singular examen, sagaz y convincente, de la catástrofe ocasionada por esa cosa a la que todavía algunos llaman la revolución cubana. Creo que Pablo Socorro deja un sendero angosto para los análisis de ciertos sesudos historiadores del repite y pon, y para aquellos cubanólogos de buró y estrado.
Y todo mediante una trama de referencias tragicómicas que llevan como norte procurar el placer de la lectura. Para lo cual son expuestas con tintes realistas, pero no encorsetadas bajo los chatos marcos de la realidad. Lo que es decir sujetas únicamente a la imaginería del autor e impulsadas por el dominio de la progresión dramática y de la acción que avanza contra viento y marea, como el almendrón azul.

José Hugo Fernández.
Miami, marzo de 2023.
