«Querido primer novio» is the novel by Zoé Valdés published by Debolsillo in 2000 in paperback, with 352 pages and text in Spanish.
The protagonist recalls the dazzlement and confusion of first love while reconstructing her adolescence in the Cuba of her youth. Through her memories, the novel interweaves nostalgia, the search for identity, and the contradictions of human relationships, with a poetic prose that accentuates the emotion of that time.
This edition belongs to the Ave Fénix collection from Debolsillo. The work was a finalist for the Ferro-Grumley Award for Lesbian Fiction in 2003.
For readers of contemporary fiction interested in Cuban literature and in stories of memory, identity, and first love.
