Title: Cuba--Going Back
Description: "Imagine not going home for thirty-six years. Think of never seeing the house where you grew up, never hearing the sounds of the city streets, never feeling the sea breeze on the beach where you spent all your childhood summers. What would you do if you finally got a change to go back?"--BOOK JACKET.

"When travel restrictions between the United States and Cuba were relaxed in the 1990s, Cuban exile Tony Mendoza answered that question. Taking the tools of his trade - cameras, notebooks, and unquenchable curiosity - he returned in 1996 for a twenty-one day visit to the country his family left for good in the summer of 1960, when he was eighteen.

From the eighty rolls of film he shot, he here presents over eighty of the most evocative photos accompanied by a beautifully written text that mingles the voices of many Cubans with his own to offer a compelling portrait of a resilient people awaiting the inevitable passing of the socialist system that has failed them."--BOOK JACKET.
