Description
Island of the White Rose is a love story set amid the Cuban revolution. It is a novel of adventure and intrigue, of armed struggle and forbidden love, at the time Castro was on the cusp of victory. It weaves fiction into the historical record to flesh out the lives and loves of upper-middle-class Cubans who fought courageously in the Havana underground, many only to reap disillusionment after Castro took power.
