Infante's Inferno - Softcover

"Infante's Inferno is a funny, lubricous, autobiographical novel of a would-be rake's progress."

Detailing the sexual education and adventures of the author, Infante's Inferno is a book about growing up in pre-revolutionary Havana. Viewing every girl as a potential lover, and the movies as a place both for entertainment and potential sexual escapades, Cabrera Infante captures the adolescent male mind-set with a great deal of self-conscious fun. With his hallmark of puns and wordplay - translated by Suzanne Jill Levine and the author - Cabrera Infante has written a hilarious version of the Don Juan myth set in the tropics.
