Synopsis of Chimarrão: história de um escravo

Esta obra narra la vida de Esteban Montejo, un ex esclavo cubano que vivió como cimarrón en los montes de la región de Las Villas. A través de las entrevistas realizadas por el autor Miguel Barnet, el relato ofrece un testimonio crudo y detallado sobre la barbarie de la esclavitud, el trabajo en las plantaciones de caña de azúcar y las tradiciones religiosas afro-cubanas. El libro es una pieza fundamental de la literatura testimonial, capturando la voz de un hombre de ciento tres años que presenció la transición social y política de Cuba, desde el aislamiento en la selva hasta la vida cotidiana de las diferentes razas y clases sociales de la isla.
