Winner of the 1997 Agnes Lynch Starrett Prize. City of a
Hundred Fires presents us with a journey through the
cultural coming of age experiences of the hyphenated
Cuban-American. This distinct group, known as the Generation
(as coined by Bill Teck), are the bilingual children of
Cuban exiles nourished by two cultural currents the
fragmented traditions and transferred nostalgia of their
parents' Caribbean homeland and the very real and present
America where they grew up and live.
