Este volumen es una muestra de la vitalidad cultural y poética de Zapotlán el Grande a través de la organización y premiación del certamen de los juegos florales, la jovial justa provenzal que los zapotlenses —entre ellos Juan José Arreola, de quien celebramos el centenario— comenzaron a convocar desde 1942 y que, con algunas pausas, ha continuado hasta la fecha: la flor de 2018 fue para Balam Rodrigo, uno de los poetas mexicanos de mayores merecimientos. Concebido por Ricardo Sigala, el libro está compuesto por cinco partes.

Cuba’s José Lezama Lima became the most controversial figure in the flowering of the Latin American novel with the 1966 publication of Paradiso. Hailed as a seminal writer of breathtaking originality by Julio Cortázar, Octavio Paz, and Mario Vargas Llosa, Lezama was also attacked by the Castro regime and others for his stylistic obscurity, erotic descriptions, and violation of literary norms. Indeed, his experimental fiction, written on the very boundaries of the novelistic genre, resists classification.

Authorities in postrevolutionary Cuba worked to establish a binary society in which citizens were either patriots or traitors. This all-or-nothing approach reflected in the familiar slogan “patria o muerte” (fatherland or death) has recently been challenged in protests that have adopted the theme song “patria y vida” (fatherland and life), a collaboration by exiles that, predictably, has been banned in Cuba itself.

But despite public performance of patriotism, the life experience of many Cubans was somewhere in between. Guerra explores these in-between spaces and looks at Cuban citizens’ complicity with authoritarianism, leaders’ exploitation of an earnest anti-imperialist nationalism, and the duality of an existence that contains elements of both support and betrayal of a nation and of an ideology.
