BREAKS NEW GROUND: The book is the first and only cultural account of the Cuban intervention in the Angolan War. It is also a groundbreaking contribution to nascent scholarship on how the unseen world of disembodied forces operates as a channel of human agencyUNIQUE PERSPECTIVE: The book offers an innovative Africa-centred theoretical approach to counter the challenge of researching race in 1970s Cuba. The book is unique in presenting transnational and geopolitical perspectives on the theme of Afro-Cuban discourseNEW APPROACH: The book bolts in-depth scholarly analysis to a creative style of writing – fictocriticism – to perform and re-define the central themes of identity, race/Africa and change
