Mi Moto Fidel : Motorcycling Through Castro's Cuba
by Christopher P. Baker
Mi Moto Fidel, Christopher Baker's intriguing account of his three-month
romp through Cuba on a fire-engine red motorcycle is perhaps the most
thorough portrait of this faded Communist country to date. Baker leaves no
stone unturned as he revisits Ernest Hemingway's haunts in Havana, checks
out a secret cave in the foothills of the sierras that once served as Che
Guevara's command post during the Cuban Missile Crisis, and sips motojos
at a thatched-roofed beach bar on Playa Los Pinos. On this exhaustive
journey, our leather-clad "yanqui" interacts with a myriad of characters
from artists to farmers to fisherman to prostitutes, and engages in lively
discussions on everything from politics, sex, cigars, and, of course, on
the aging revolutionary himself, Fidel Castro. Baker effectively captures
the essence of the Cuban people--primarily their generosity and resilient
spirit--and his various dalliances with beautiful habaneras (Daisy, Sonia,
and Juanita, to name a few) will pique readers' interest (men's more than
women's, understandably). By the time Baker winds up back in Havana he has
covered some 7,000 miles on his cherished bike. After reading Mi Moto
Fidel, you'll no doubt be inspired to hit the road. --Jill Fergus -
