Publisher Description

SPANISH LANGUAGE EDITION
Ganadora del Premio Pulitzer 2003 de Obras Dramáticas

“Extraordinaria y evocativa. La estelar Ana en el trópico es una obra de arte.” –Christine Dolen, Miami Herald

Ana en el trópico es una obra hermosa y conmovedora, reforzada por el humor y la congja. Cruz es un seductor narrador de cuentos, y un dúctil tejedor de sueños.” –Robert L. Daniels, Variety

“El lenguaje de Cruz posee una brilliante belleza lírica, y una simple precision que encanta con su elegancia natural.” –Desmond Ryan, Philadelphia Inquirer

Ana en el trópico es una nueva obra conmovedora y poética, ambientada en la Florida del año 1929, en una fábrica de tabacos cubanoamericana en la que los puros aún se hacian a mano, y donde se contrataba a lectores para instruir y entretener a los empleados. El arribo de un Nuevo lector es causa de celebración, pero cuando éste comienza a leer en voz alta de Ana Karénina, sin proponérselo, se vuelve el catalizador de las vidas de los ávidos oyentes, para los que Tolstói, el trópico, y el sueño americano resultan ser una combinación volátil.

Nilo Cruz, cuyas obras incluyen Two Sisters and a Piano, Lorca in a Green Dress, Night Train to Bolina, A Bicycle Country y Dancing on Her Knees, es uno de los más prolificos de los dramaturges cubanoamericanos. Cruz ha sido profesor de dramaturgia en las universidades Brown y Yale, y también ha recibido numerosos galardones, incluyendo el premio Pulitzer de 2003 de obras dramáticas, el galardón Steinberg, y el premio Kesselring.
