The aim of the article is a critical commentary, accompanied by scholarly apparatus, on some fragments of the still unpublished Italian translation of Vista del amanecer en el trópico (1974) by the Cuban writer Guillermo Cabrera Infante, with the aim of presenting some of the results of the research I have conducted on the book’s previously unpublished iconographic sources and of showing the specificity of its narrative discourse. This fragmentary narrative, which employs diverse materials (documentary and iconographic sources, manuals, and oral testimonies) and interweaves and hybridizes discursive forms (narrative, dialogue, ekphrasis, poetry, critical commentary), constitutes a kind of national “counter-history,” conceived as a catalogue of snapshots intended to foreground the most controversial aspects of Cuban history.
