It's Never Cold in Havana recounts the musical, poetic and political adventures of a group of young Havana residents in 1972, young people excited by the "hippie" movement of the time, which was not only difficult to see and hear on the island, but was severely banned. Eva, the narrator, together with her friends Bada and Pilzy, is part of the Cuban underground. The three of them firmly believe that life will always be above ideologies and intolerances. Thanks to their adventures, the reader will discover the little known Cuban rock from the inside, a persecuted and expelled rock. We will witness the confrontations of the Havana "hippies" with their harassers and the creation of a powerful, hidden and liberating force: the Jipangá. It is a novel about rock, about the freedom it gave to different generations and still gives to the whole world. It is also an initiation novel about female sexuality, adolescence, perseverance and truth. A very revealing work, by the hand of an especially inspired Zoé Valdés who achieves truly moving passages.
