Explores the relationship between passion and politics in revolutionary Cuba to present a comprehensive history of sexuality on the island from 1959 to the twenty-first century. Drawing on an unused body of oral history interviews, as well as press accounts, literary works, and other published sources, Carrie Hamilton pushes beyond official government rhetoric and explores how the wider changes initiated by the Revolution have affected the sexual lives of Cuban citizens.
