This truly unique illustrated book featuring impressive pictures and touching portraits shows how the political and economic transition process in Cuba affects the inhabitants of this island rich in contrast. We learn about their everyday life, their hopes and fears and – most notably – about their love for music that leads through this book like a red thread. The photographer met, amongst others, classical music students, hip-hoppers from Havanna and Cuba’s most successful heavy metal band. Through his friendships with the musicians the author gained a deep insight into Cuban life and provides an authentic impression of this fascinating country beyond familiar tourist clichés.
