About this ebook
Cuba, the Island I Treasure recounts the author’s search for truth in a lifetime of broken
promises as he travels to his homeland, Cuba. After forty four years since he left,
Cuba still is a land of beauty yet fraught with contradictions. He is surprised by what
the country has to offer him soon after he arrives. Most Cubans are vigilant of ‘Big
Brother’ watching but they have remarkably kept their festive attitude toward life.
How do you shake the heartbreaking poverty? Some have adapted while others can’t
get beyond the coercion of the current government. The author keeps asking, “Is
ignorance bliss?”
The author’s journey of healing begins when he recalls Cuba through his childhood memories. He discovered that change is inevitable and it must come from inside the country. What external events will help strengthen this change? The U.S. must lift its embargo to help alleviate the hunger and lack of medicine that affects many Cubans. In return, will the Cuban government have enough courage to free its political prisoners and allow freedom of speech to flourish and go unpunished? Cuba can heal its broken heart. Cuba, the Island I Treasure helps show us the way.
