Congrats to former @UMCHC dissertation fellow @BNofil on her new book.
Not about Cuba per se, but will help deexceptionalize a part of Cuban studies by integrating the study of Cuban migrant detention (esp. post-1980) w/in a longer American genealogy.

A while ago, I found a strange and beautiful literary artifact—the missing tape recordings containing the drafts of Reinaldo Arenas’s last book, Before Night Falls. I wrote about this treasure hunt (and the treasure) for @nybooks online!
