A love novel, which offers a critical look at the last decades of the history of Cuba, through the dramatic relationship of the friendship of two men, and of two women, mother and daughter. The plot that goes from 1956 to 1967, using the retrospective, takes place in Cuba, Hungary, Germany and the United States. The plot has elements of espionage and also of police, which alternate with the testimony of Cuban reality and political reflection. It is about gestation, ascent and decline, with realism and human feelings, where love and passion explain, both the emergence of a revolution within the Cuban historical context, and the fatal disenchantment at the betrayal of its purest ideals. Passion and love, always present, as true protagonists of the social process. The Revolution, which takes off brilliantly propelled by the noble attempt to restore to the man to his dignity, ignores, humiliates and underestimates him, when opposes to him his government structures, which in the process has supplanted his initial nobility, by the morbid intention of perpetuating himself in the power. Its main characters are of flesh and blood, who surrendered completely to a beautiful ideal, and are caught between the death of that illusion, and the enormous commitment acquired over long years of hard commitment. It is a dichotomy between the lack of moral conviction to move forward, not only with the process, but with oneself, and the inexorable danger and uncertainty of abandoning the path. Even so, those characters, with their broken dreams and their lively desires, are the ones that prevail. It is the victory of the man over the structure of government, which pretend to crush and reduce him.
