Poet and novelist Pablo Medina's Cubop City fuses natural, passionate words, and chic lyricism to inhale life into a musically-disguised NEW YORK designed by jazz masters, refugees, and storytellers. Our guide into Cubop City may be the Storyteller, born almost blind and shrouded in his mother's guilt. He's homeschooled inside his parents' crumbling apartment with a European housekeeper, and informed through Encyclopedia Britannica, the Bible, and Arabian Times. When he's 25, his mom and dad are both identified as having cancer, along with the Storyteller together is remaining to care for them. He does indeed so by informing them testimonies conceived from the prolific reading that allowed his thoughts to flourish despite little connection with the outside world. Through his tales full of magic, sorrow, longing, and love, Cubop City surges colorfully to life. Moving through myriad items of view, The Storyteller imagines a global filled by both well-known characters like Chano Pozo and Jelly Roll Morton, and created characters, most notably a mustachioed man who is stabbed with a stranger and embarks on a novel-long search for his attacker. Molded in the cadence of Afro-Cuban jazz, Cubop City is a symphonic portrait of the bustling urban landscaping and the seductive lives that provide a city its tone of voice.
