About the Book

Este libro nos transporta al fin de una revolución a través de un relato extraordinariamente vívido de la Cuba post-Fidel.

¿Cómo narrar el final de uno de los procesos políticos más relevantes ocurridos en Latinoamérica? ¿Qué registrar cuando se visita una isla donde se cede lentamente el paso a la modernización? Ambas preguntas remiten a una cuestión innegable: un capítulo en la historia contemporánea está terminando. Por esta razón, durante los últimos años, Patricio Fernández ha viajado a Cuba para relatar los hechos que han acontecido en la isla antes y después de que Fidel Castro dejara el poder en manos de su hermano Raúl.

Tomando el pulso de la vida cotidiana y describiendo sus pormenores, a la vez que recogiendo testimonios de personajes centrales y de cubanos tan anónimos como singulares, Cuba. Viaje al fin de la Revolución relata el histórico restablecimiento de las relaciones con Estados Unidos, las visitas del papa Francisco y de los Rolling Stones, la muerte de Fidel y el proceso de paz entre Colombia y las FARC mediado por la isla, entre otros hitos.

Este libro es, en suma, el retrato de una sociedad o, como señala su autor, "lo que ha quedado de ella: lo bueno, lo malo y lo inclasificable de uno de los proyectos sociales más ambiciosos de la historia humana, llevado a cabo en esta pequeña isla que hoy habita en compás de espera, aunque sin esperanza".

"Este libro es una crítica de la época, de la esperanza tramposa de la revolución cubana. Admiro muchísimo la sutilidad y la comprensión de distintas perspectivas que no he visto en otros libros sobre el tema.".-David Rieff

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Cuba. Journey to the End of the Revolution
Fernandez's account takes us to the end of the revolution through an amazingly brilliant look at a post-Fidel Cuba.

How to narrate the end of one of the most relevant political processes in Latin America? What to document and record when visiting an island where the pace of modernization is slowly giving way? Both questions refer to an undeniable fact: a chapter in contemporary history is ending. For this reason, the last few years Patricio Fernandez has traveled to Cuba to document and witness events that have taken place on the island before and after Fidel Castro left power to his brother Raúl.

By witnessing the heartbeat of everyday life and describing its details, collecting testimonies from key people and from regular Cuban citizens, Cuba. Journey to the End of the Revolution relates many accounts such as the historic reinstatement of US relations, Pope Francis' and the Rolling Stones' visits, Fidel's death, and the peace process that Cuba mediated between Colombia and the FARC, among other milestones.

In short, this book is the portrait of a society or, as the author points out, "what was left of it: the good, the bad, and the unclassifiable."
