Description

Araceli Tinajero. 2007. El lector de tabaqueria: Historia de una tradicion cubana. Madrid: Editorial Verbum. 259 pp. ISBN: 978-84-7962-392-0. The tradition, role and even the mythology of the figure of the public reader (the lector) in Cuban tobacco factories has long been one of the more fascinating aspects of Cuba's social and political history. While social and political historians, or those tracing the history of the book or of printing, have often mentioned it in passing (especially singling out the phenomenon as a critical element in the emergence of both trade union radicalism and Cuban national sentiment), the subject has actually been surprisingly little researched. For that reason alone (regardless of the quality of the work), this book by Araceli Tinajero is especially welcome. However, not only does it go some way towards filling that void but it does so with a study which, always elegantly and indeed eloquently written, is patently the result of both commendably exhaustive research and a labor of love, arising from an equally evident personal commitment to the topic (something borne out by the 5-page introduction, which not only lays out the significance of the subject but also lays bare the author's soul in terms of that attachment).
