Javier Arzuaga was a boy when he was sent to the priesthood by his devoutly Catholic and traditional parents. He took to the priesthood reluctantly, and, after his vows, he was sent to Cuba, where he lived through the revolution of 1959 with elation. His parish included La Cabaña, the fortress prison where the accomplices of the deposed dictator who had not fled the island were held.
