«Tres tristes tigres» is the novel by Cuban writer Guillermo Cabrera Infante, published by Seix Barral in paperback (477 pages, in Spanish).
The novel is devoted to nightlife in prerevolutionary Havana: bars, clubs, music and conversations. Cabrera Infante plays with language and the rhythms of speech to narrate the adventures of three friends who tour cabarets, salons and low neighbourhoods. The city and music are almost protagonists of this nocturnal celebration.
