Imaging the Chinese in Cuban Literature and Culture
Ignacio Lopez-Calvo
More than 150 years ago, over 150,000 Chinese immigrated to Cuba, and their presence has had a profound effect on the aspects of Cuban cultural production, from food to books to painting. This book counters the representations of chinos mambises, Chinese immigrants who fought for Cuba in the Wars of Independence against Spain.
