À propos de cet audio
Cabrera Infante's masterpiece, Three Trapped Tigers is one of the most playful books to reach the US from Cuba. Filled with puns, wordplay, lists upon lists, and Sternean typography - such as the section entitled "Some Revelations", which consists of several blank minutes - this novel has been praised as a more modern, sexier, funnier, Cuban Ulysses. Centering on the recollections of a man separated from both his country and his youth, Cabrera Infante creates an enchanting vision of life and the many colorful characters found in steamy Havana's pre-Castro cabaret society.
©1965 Guillermo Cabrera Infante; 1971 Donald Gardner and Suzanne Jill Levine (English Translation) (P)2016 Audible, Inc.Enrico Santi is truly masterful in his performance of this novel. I will definitely look for more titles performed by him. I think reading this book would be unbearable because of its rather fluid structure, but as an audiobook with a fantastic narrator it kind of works.
The writing actually reminded me a lot of Nabokov in terms of play on words, This is what made it entertaining, but if you were to ask me what it was about I couldn’t answer very well. It seems to be a snap shot in the lives of various characters and, much like reality, there is no real beginning or end.
Interesting….
