"Selection of moving poems by Cuban poet reflects her struggle to subvert official language, her disenchantment with Cuba's revolutionary government, and her incarceration. Unidentified translator has served poorly not only Cruz Varela's poetry but also Nicasio Silva's critical essay and Liva Clavijo's prologue. For more satisfying translations, see Ruth Behar's translation of 'El Muro' ('The Wall') in Bridges to Cuba (see item #bi2001000699#) and Mairym Cruz-Bernal's work in Ballad of the blood (see item #bi 97009390#)"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.

Tal vez algunos lectores se preguntarán porque se me ocurrió producir un libro de los ángeles, para contestar su curiosidad le diré que en una noche de viernes cuando caminé, en el campo, desde la casa de mi abuela hasta la Iglesia donde me tocaba predicar, como estaba lluvioso no asistió ni un solo miembro. (Iglesia Vertientes, Baracoa Cuba). Yo decidí quedarme en la Iglesia en vigilia y oración y en la madrugada tuve una visión de cuatro ángeles sobre la Iglesia. Su piel era muy rosada y sus vestidos eran como de seda que la brisa lo movía suavemente. Después de esa experiencia los hermanos por si solo se hicieron la decisión de no faltar a los cultos, parece que lo siguen cumpliendo, porque después de 28 años de ausencia yo le volví a visitar y el mismo día, sin anuncio, ni aviso la Iglesia estaba llena, gracias a DIOS, todo sea para su honra y su gloria y era domingo en la tarde. Lo segundo y último porque produje este material es que he examinado en varios países algunas producciones sobre los ángeles y la mayoría no se ajustan a la Palabra de Dios. Puedo garantizar que este es el documento más extenso que se ha producido sobre este tema, pues es el producto de 52 años Bíblicos y especialmente un año sacando todo lo que la Biblia dice de los ángeles y sus relacionados. Yo le digo a los hermanos que los ángeles quisieran estar en el cielo, pero como tienen que estar con nosotros, por lo menos se sienten mejor cuando nos acompañan a los servicios religiosos, donde se canta, se ora, se estudia la Palabra, se adora, se alaba y se honra al Dios verdadero, nuestro Creador. Amen
