This book examines the philosophical and spiritual facets of religions like Regla de Ocha, Palo, Abakuá, and Vodou, and how deeply embedded they are in Cuban popular culture and art, be it music, the visual arts, film, or literature.

This study offers a unique perspective in interpreting the cultural politics of Cuba's complex history through an exploration of the country's literature. This poetic look at Cuba's rich and turbulent history through the eyes of its writers will be of interest to students and scholars of Latin American history and culture.
