The Eye of Night. New Short Stories by Cuban Women

“Thanks to this anthology by Amir Valle, we can know that Cuba is one of the countries of Latin America with major development in fiction written by women. His book is essential and, furthermore, presents old and new voices with the the same interest”.

Mary G. Berg, North American writer

El ojo de la noche. Nuevas cuentistas cubanas, antología, Amir ValleThe short stories brought together here, after the substantial prologue of the anthologist, are from young writers who have made themselves known since 1984. The convincing list and the quality prove the creative possibilities of the authors who, with curious and disimilar texts, penetrate very cleverly into the world of the every day as well as that of fantasy and linguistic transgression, in a moment of their incipient literary careers that succeeded in calling the critical attention of the nation, before converting themseves into important names in present-day Cuban fiction written by women.
