Produktbeschreibung
Cuban-Americans are among the few groups of emigrants and exiles who have been able to integrate and succeed in their new country in just a generation and a half instead of the three normally required. They take great pride in that fact. Every Cuban millionaire is celebrated within their community as their own success, every failure as a stain to delete or hide. Campa's story is not one of triumph. Unable to fulfill the mythic role of the Cuban able to sell anything to anyone, Campa was marginal even in his own community. He was persecuted in Cuba, and didn't enjoy life much more in the United States, though at least he was free. His book and his life offer a portrait of an awkward Miami that isn't listed in the tourist books.
