My Cousin Leonor (Mi Prima Leonor) By Dr. Ismael Santos, Translated by T.A. Terga, renowned psychoanalyst Dr. Ismael Santos, delves into the enigmatic personality of Doña Leonor Pérez Cabrera, the mother of José Martí, Cuba's revered hero and the father of its independence movement. Through an intimate and meticulous analysis of Doña Leonor's personal letters-sent over decades to the Governor of Cuba and to her son-Dr. Santos reconstructs the emotional and psychological world of a woman whose steadfast character shaped her son's revolutionary legacy. Brimming with maternal devotion, political undertones, and personal reflections, these letters reveal a complex interplay of love, duty, and resilience. Doña Leonor emerges as both a fiercely protective mother and an unwilling witness to her son's relentless fight for Cuba's liberation-a struggle that would ultimately claim his life. Dr. Santos weaves psychoanalysis with historical context, offering a vivid portrait of a mother's quiet strength amid the turbulence of colonial Cuba. With careful attention to her linguistic nuances and the emotional depth of her correspondence, the author uncovers the fears, hopes, and sacrifices of a woman who lived in the shadow of revolution but whose influence on Martí was profound. Translated into English by T.A. Terga, this work brings Doña Leonor's voice to life for a broader audience, casting a fresh light on her pivotal yet often overlooked role in Cuban history. Mi Prima Leonor is a poignant and enlightening exploration of motherhood, identity, and the intimate bonds that shaped one of Latin America's greatest leaders. Tireless, overzealous Women in History like Leonor Perez Cabrera deserve our patronage not only because she birthed the most prominent intellectual Revolutionaries of the Latinx World at the turn of the 19th century but also because the internationally renowned poet and bestselling author José Martí, whose pen conquered the minds of the people for the cause of independence from colonial despondency. Despite being behind the scenes, where women were placed in historical events before the modern age, women were still a tremendously productive stronghold. And Doña Leonor Peres Carera stood out among the rest. Not only did she play a vital role in saving her son's life from ignominy by writing a letter to the Governor of Cuba, but she also maintained the ties between mother and son through her frequent correspondence. Regardless of his unbending commitment to a cause she felt had taken her son away from his family, she kept the ties between mother and son intact. >Available to the world now, this handwritten historical collection of letters from a mother's broken heart will illuminate the psyche of a tireless and visionary woman who gave up her only son for Cuba's independence through his prolific pen in Spain. .
