Title: Not worth the time
Review: When will someone write a decent book about Cuba? My search continues. Pepper's book definitely wasn't the answer. It's way too long, her voice is annoying - she really wants to lecture readers but her training as a writer has her attempting to cover up her inner preacher. And the "love story" aspect is tedious, boring, and self-serving. He seems a little made up...Convenient way for her to tell us her opinions. What is most disappointing is that the author fails to take advantage of her experience and the process of writing to really deliver a memoir that might enlighten people - the kernels of truth are in the story that she barely tells of her blacklisted father...but she doesn't dig into that and how it affects her perception of Cuba, how Cuba becomes a way for her to connect to her deceased and persecuted father. This could have been so much better...both as a memoir, and a creative non-fiction piece about Cuba.
