Opis książki
Unwoke by Ted Cruz
The text recounts the tale of Rafael Bienvenido Cruz, a young Cuban revolutionary who joined the Marxist revolution at the age of fourteen.
He had no knowledge of the hardships that would befall the Cuban people under his new comrades, Fidel Castro, and the corrupt dictator Fulgencio Batista.
Born in Matanzas, his father grew up in a picturesque island paradise, where he crossed paths with a talented student named Laudelina, who later became the author's father's first-born son.
The father became part of the revolution and engaged in acts of sabotage to undermine the oppressive regime. His actions led to his arrest by Batista's police, who sought revenge brutally.
The father was held responsible for every misfortune in the city, but the commandant refused to release him. Upon his return home, the author's mother wept as her eldest child had been beaten and covered in his own blood.
Her grandmother warned him to leave the country, but the father was determined to stay and join his fellow revolutionaries in preparing a military assault on the government.
In 1957, the father boarded a ferry to Key West, hoping to return to Cuba. He purchased a Greyhound bus ticket and embarked on a lonely journey to Austin, where he found a place to live and worked as a dishwasher, earning only a few cents per hour.
