Contemporary Dance in Cuba: Tecnica Cubana as Revolutionary Movement
"Suki John's book on Cuban dance is superb. She skillfully and expertly guides us through the mazeworks of one of the most dance-creative nations on earth. Cuba gave us mambo, rumba, danzon, habanera. John updates all that, showing how Cuba perennially transforms the human body into a rich and ready art form. Strongly recommended." --Robert Farris Thompson, author of Tango: The Art History of Love and Aesthetic of the Cool
