Publisher's Synopsis

Set in Cuba during the 1920s, this novel recounts the eventful life of a cabaret dancer named Rachel. The protagonist is an actress, a dancer, and a heartbreaker who takes readers on a guided tour through the different stages of her past, from the filthy theaters, cabarets, and circuses in which she debuted, to the mythical Alhambra Theater in which she reached the height of her career. In addition to Rachel's narrative, the voices of stagehands, journalists, friends, enemies, and gossips depict an accurate portrait of the customs during the Cuban belle époque.

Ambientada en Cuba durante los años 20, esta novela cuenta la azarosa existencia de una cabaretera llamada Rachel. La protagonista es una actriz, bailarina y rompecorazones que acompaña al lector en un recorrido a través de todos los escenarios de su memoria, desde los cochambrosos teatrillos, cabarets y circos en los que debutó hasta el mìtico teatro Alhambra en el que triunfió. Junto a la narración de Rachel, las voces de tramoyistas, periodistas, amigos, enemigos y chismosos componen un verdadero retrato de las costumbres de la belle époque cubana.
