Based on his firsthand experiences and those of his fellow Cuban citizens, Nelson exposes the network of lies at the center of Cuban Communism. He discusses the many promises of the Communist government and shows how each one was either an intentional falsehood or a gross distortion of actual reality. Areas he analyzes include press freedom, education, healthcare, and the unrelenting day-to-day struggle for survival and sustenance. In a new appendix in this English edition, he also discusses some more details of his own life in Cuba, and the specific events that led to his prison term, his role in founding Cuban libertarian groups, and his eventual need to flee the country.
