Este libro es un verdadero documento histórico que contribuye a esclarecer la obra memorable y santa de la formación del espÃritu cubano.
Raimundo Cabrera Bosch (1852-1923), ensayista, periodista, abogado y patriota, fue una figura intelectual de primera importancia en la Cuba del siglo XIX. Nacido en La Habana y educado en Güines, hijo de un obrero tabaquero, a los 8 años ganó una medalla de oro del Ayuntamiento güinero como el mejor estudiante de la Villa. A los 17 años fue tomado prisionero para luego ser encarcelado y confinado a Isla de Pinos.
En este libro, Cabrera narra cómo hizo el viaje de Batabanó a Isla de Pinos con 37 deportados procedentes de distintas partes de Cuba que iban a ser arrojados a una isla pobre, despoblada, sin industria, sin agricultura, sin trabajo, llegando allà con la incertidumbre de lo desconocido, preguntándose qué nuevas angustias y miserias les tendrÃa reservado allà el destino.
La lectura del texto constituye una experiencia placentera, tanto por la capacidad evocadora del autor como el acertado empleo de recursos narrativos y lÃricos - Raimundo Cabrera también fue poeta - y resulta asimismo un valioso testimonio del modo en que transcurrÃa la vida en Güines, las caracterÃsticas de su gente y cómo la posibilidad de obtener la independencia impactó esa comunidad.
