Cómo conocí al sembrador de árboles

Although all the stories gathered here have been written outside of Cuba, it is important to remember, however, that they took shape in that other inexhaustible Cuba that Abilio Estévez, for better or for worse, carries with him. And those stories want to respond to the secret of a country in danger of extinction. His intention is to turn the history that Cubans have lived around, to observe it from another point of view, a distant place where clichés and praise do not reach, and to try to understand the maelstrom into which the island has been transformed. Stories that are testimonies of a failure. Who want to attest to the desire to live even in the midst of so much frustration and sinking. Its protagonists have lost their memory or it turns out that they remember too much -the other form of forgetting-. They are characters who create a parallel reality to withstand the pettiness of everyday life. That in the midst of an incomprehensible disaster they intend to resist.
