Within an envelope in Guillermo Cabrera Infante's house after his fatality in 2005, Map Drawn by a Spy is the world-renowned writer's autobiographical account of the previous four weeks he put in in his country. In 1965, following his mother's fatality, Infante profits to Cuba from Brussels, where he is hired as a ethnic attaché at the Cuban embassy. Whenever a few days later his authorization to return to European countries is revoked, Infante begins a period of suspicion, uncertainty, and disillusion. Unable to leave the united states, denied usage of party officials, yet still receiving assessments for his work in Belgium, Infante discovers the reality of Cuba under Fidel Castro: imprisonment of homosexuals, silencing of freelance writers, the shutting of libraries and papers, and the loan consolidation of power. Both lucid and honest, Map Drawn by a Spy is a moving portrayal of the fractured population and a writer's struggles to come quickly to terms along with his national identity.
