A chat with Brian Lloyd French author of "Mojito"

from CANTO TALK & OPINIONS · host Silvio Canto. Jr.

We would definitely recommend the book.  It is a good read.  It also made me think about Cuba's future, a topic of interest to many of us.I happen to be optimistic about Cuba's future.  The island will probably go through a confusing transition after the Castro brothers die naturally or some other way.My guess is that the US will step in and provide the kind of cash and assistance that the new government needs.  Also, Cuban-Americans in the US will be a part of remaking Cuba, from a communist country to a new democratic republic. Yes I am optimistic but also realistic enough to say that the transition will be hard.Read Brian's book.  It is a good and compelling story.  At the same time, it will make you think about a future Cuba.
