Hello!
On our book club edition we talked to Cuban author Pedro Pérez-Sarduy about his book The Maids of Havana.
|
|
A book that takes the reader on a journey of pre-revolutionary Cuba and through the Cuban Revolution.
The Maids of Havana explores the complexities of race, gender and class in Cuba. It is told from the perspective of Marta, a black single mother from Santa Clara, who sees herself forced to leave her children with her sister and move to Havana to work as a maid for rich white families.
Listeners from London and central America sent questions to the author.
