Havana Youth by Greg Kahn (Yoffy Press)
"In Havana Youth, Greg Kahn explores Cubans born
after 1989, who have only known a time after the USSR dissolved and left
the Caribbean nation with few resources and a growth-crippling, US-led
economic embargo. Those kids, born during what is called “The Special
Period”, are now in their twenties and developing a sense of
individuality in a society that was historically focused on
collectivism. This is their cultural counter-revolution, and they are
redefining what it means to be Cuban." –Yoffy Press
