Even Saints Emigrate

Bol

Emigration is a phenomenon as ancient as it is current, complex, and full of contrasts. This book, based on the story of the Santos family, reveals the true causes that have driven generations of Cubans to leave their homeland.From the colonial era - when the island attracted thousands in search of prosperity - to the Republic and, later, the Revolution, the course changed: the sons and daughters of Cuba began to flee. The progressive social, economic, and political deterioration, worsened by a regime that imposed shortages and silence, turned exile into the only alternative.Even the Saints Emigrate exposes the wounds left by this process: the loss of young people and professionals, the suffering of those who leave, and the pain of those who remain. With a serious and testimonial tone, it stands as both a denunciation and a tribute to the resilience of a people marked by diaspora.
