About this product

Product Information

El autor, Gerardo Chavez Garcia, nacio en San Antonio de los Bas, La Habana, Cuba. Durante una tarde de stalgicos recuerdos, se dio cuenta que el y su abuelo tuvieron cierta similitud en sus as de juventud, ambos abandonaron su tierra natal solos, antes de cumplir 21 as de edad, dejando toda la familia detras. Esa decision que tomaron, cada u en su tiempo y sus propias circunstancias, le intrigaron. Sabia cuales fueron sus motivos, los riesgos y las dificultades que tuvo que afrentar para lograr su objetivo. Lo que sabia era como habia logrado su abuelo atravesar el Atlantico saliendo de islas Canarias y establecerse en Cuba. Sabiendo que ya era tarde para lograr detalles de los primeros as de vida de su abuelo, penso que quizas algun dia leja todavia, cuando sus nietas tuvieran su edad, pudieran estar en una posicion similar, queriendo saber detalles de como logro escapar de la tirania cubana, y como logro comenzar su vida en Estados Unidos. Fue asi, hace un poco mas de dos as, que se dio a la tarea de ir escribiendo sus recuerdos, concentrandose en los que pensaba les pudieran interesar a ellas en el futuro. El abuelo les describe brevemente las partes de su familia que ellas cocieron. Les cuenta sobre su sana y a veces atrevida ninez, adolescencia, juventud y sobre su entor. Por que se sintio obligado a abandonar a su ilvidable Isla natal, sus fracasados intentos por lograr escapar, por que llego a Jamaica, solo, con el corazon en la boca, como sobrevivio alli. Finalmente les relata su llegada a Miami. Por que dias despues emprendio viaje rumbo rte, las experiencias vividas durante los casi tres meses del trayecto hasta Nueva York, donde termina su relato al cumplir los 21 as de edad en 1961.
