Since Cuba became a republic, its ever-changing historical landscape impacted families differently. Yet, although everyone's story can't be painted with one brush, we find truth in the common denominator: the foods we eat, the songs we sing, and the stories we tell. The cuentos - stories chosen for this anthology are part of The Green Plantain - The Cuban Stories Project podcast series. They illustrate the lives of Cubans on the island and those who make their home in other countries as part of the diaspora.
The accounts and anecdotes illustrate resilience, entrepreneurial spirit, a strong sense of family, and love of country and God. They vary in mood - some are funny, nostalgic, inspirational, or share a bit of history. These are our stories - shared in celebration of our roots.
