«Havanera» is the historical novel by Francesc Joan Bodí Beneyto, published by Edicions Bromera in paperback (518 pages, in Catalan).
Set in Cuba before the war of independence, it follows Josep Martí, a newcomer who discovers a mixed-race and sensual society: indigenous heritages, African rites, a declining Spanish colony, Creole aspirations for modernity and growing American greed. Between magical realism and passion, the novel is also a story of love, seduction and spirituality.
The work is part of the L'Eclèctica collection, number 124, and was awarded the Premi València de Narrativa Alfons el Magnànim in 2005.
For readers aged 16 and over, especially those who enjoy historical fiction, magical realism and Caribbean settings.
