Pastor Castillo Diaz

On the Summit of La Esperanza Pastor Castillo Diaz

The life of an ordinary person-that simultaneously will resemble and differentiate itself from that of yours-will unfold right before your eyes. What is new in this novel is that everything is real; the author does neither aspire to be exceptional, nor to become a hero, but he has been original. It has values and sentiments with which you will surely identify yourself. The main character leads the reader into the normal day-to-day routine which will later come to pass as history. At the end, we become aware of the answer to the question, Why do so many Cubans yearn for their country?The protagonists, overcoming reality and fiction intertwined, impart both their positive and negative aspects. In each page, the emotions experienced in real life by the author, mirror those on the written page. In the words of the author: "The pages of this book share a nobleness akin to the fallen leaves of the Royal palm tree. They both offer us refuge in times of need."
