Mexican scholar Araceli Tinajero will read from her important new work (University of Texas Press), which traces the evolution of the cigar factory reader from nineteenth-century Cuba to the present as well as its manifestation in Tampa, Key West, Puerto Rico, the Dominican Republic, and Mexico. Scholars Roberto González Echevarría (The Cambridge History of Latin American Literature) and Mauricio Font (The Cuban Republic and José Martí) will join the author in a discussion about the tradition of the cigar factory reader and its relationship to Latin American literature and culture.
