Book Review of Adios Muchachos

Adios Muchachos
vallipow avatar reviewed on + 40 more book reviews


This is a satirical novel with a lot of sexual spice about modern life in Havana, Cuba. Its star is an independent, clever, sassy young woman with a lot of "assets." She uses her beauty and wiles (without turning to prostitution) to her advantage among European, Canadian, and Latin American men with money in order to accomplish a better life for herself and her mother. It's a quick, and quirky, read by a well-known Latin-American writer, and it made me laugh out loud, always a good thing!
