«La ninfa inconstante» is the novel by Guillermo Cabrera Infante, published by Galaxia Gutenberg in hardback (288 pages, in Spanish).
Estela, not yet sixteen, arouses the interest of a mature, married film critic. But this is no conventional love story: she sets in motion a far from innocent plan. In the background, boleros and a noisy, sensual Havana; the prose unfolds wordplay, cinematic references and popular speech.
Published posthumously in 2008, it expands the fresco of pre-1959 Havana with autobiographical touches; it belongs to the Narrativa collection.
For readers of contemporary fiction interested in Cuban literature and in Cabrera Infante's playful prose.
Guillermo Cabrera Infante was a Cuban novelist, essayist, translator, screenwriter, and critic; in the 1950s he used the pseudonym G. Caín, and used Guillermo Cain for the screenplay of the cult classic film Vanishing Point (1971).
