“The words of Nilo Cruz waft from the stage like a scented breeze … timeless passions that touch us all.” — The Miami Herald
Shimmering with passion, poetry and hailed by The New York Times as “a hymn to the transforming and potentially dangerous powers of art.” In Ybor City, (Tampa) Florida, 1929, cigars are rolled by hand as Cuban factory workers listen to the voices of lectors reading aloud great works of literature. When a handsome new lector begins reading Anna Karenina, he ignites a powder keg of passions. Longing, love, and betrayal spark a volatile flame that signals the end of an era.
