Dreaming in Cuban

The website “Exfoliations and Resemblances“ presents a literary analysis of Cristina Garcia’s Dreaming in Cuban, a contemporary novel about a Cuban family divided between Cuba and the United States. The site, Daina’s final project in the English & Comparative Literary Studies program at Occidental College in the spring of 2012, also explores Cuban history, politics and culture.
