520 |a Think Cuba, you're likely to think bearded revolutionaries in fatigues. Salsa. Sugar cane. Rock 'n' roll, zombies, drugs -- anomie and angst -- do not generally figure in our mental images of a country that's assumed an outsized place in the American imagination. But fresh from the tropics, in Cuba in Splinters -- a sparkling package of stories we're assured are fictional -- that's exactly what you'll find. Eleven writers largely unknown outside Cuba depict a world that veers from a hyperreal Havana in decay, against a backdrop of oblivious drug-toting German tourists, to a fantasy land -- or is it? -- where vigilant Cubans bar the door to zombies masquerading as health inspectors. Sex and knife-fights, stutterers and addicts, losers and lost literary classics: welcome to a raw and genuine island universe closed to casual visitors. 
545 0 |a Orlando Luis Pardo Lazo, webmaster of the blogs Lunes de post-Revolución and the photoblog Boring Home Utopics, at one point worked as a molecular biologist in the Cuban Center for Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology. A resident of Havana, he is now living temporarily in the United States, where he gives university lectures about social activism and Cuban civic society using new media. Hillary Gulley is the recipient of a 2012 PEN/Heim Translation Fund Grant for her work on Marcelo Cohen's The End of the Same. She lives in New York City, where she works as a translator.
