CUBA
Jailed dissident will get no more library
books for "counterrevolutionary underlining"
HAVANA, March (Reinaldo Cosano Alén
/ www.cubanet.org) - Imprisoned dissident
Rolando Jiménez will not get any
more books from the municipal library in
the Isle of Youth capital of Nueva Gerona
for highlighting the description of a dictator
in a work of fiction, said his wife.
"The librarian said they would not
let me borrow any more books because Rolando
had underlined a characterization of Aníbal
Anaya, the dictator in the book, who resembled
the Cuban ruler, and that made it a counterrevolutionary
underlining," said Maisel Gutiérrez,
Jiménez' wife.
Jiménez has a habit of underlining,
said Gutiérrez. He was reading El
perro, (The Dog) by Alberto Vázquez
Figueroa, from Central America. She said
the story is that of a political prisoner
who escapes and reflects on the dictator's
and his own situation.
