Description: Cuban writer Reinaldo Arenas (1943-1990) is considered to be one of Latin America's most innovative and provocative late-twentieth-century literary voices. A prolific writer who overcame enormous persecution and censorship, Arenas wrote novels, short stories, poetry, theater pieces, and essays.

Francisco Soto's Reinaldo Arenas is not only the first comprehensive review in English to examine and analyze the major works of Arenas, but it is also the first to trace the articulation of homoerotic themes and issues in the Cuban writer's oeuvre.
Notes: Includes bibliographical references (p. 172-179) and index.
