Dirty Blonde and Half-Cuban Book

Based on the wildly popular, semi-autobiographical Havana Honey series published by Salon.com, "Dirty Blonde and Half-Cuban" is a gritty portrait of one woman's determination to infiltrate modern Cuba and find the father she has never known. While on her search, privileged American Alysia Briggs ends up broke and alone in Havana. She's then forced to adopt the life of the "jineteras" -- educated Cuban women who supplement a desperate income by accommodating sex tourists. With an eye for detail and a razor wit, Lisa Wixon relates Alysia's journey and creates a love-song to Cuba, a heartfelt tribute to a resilient people facing soul-numbing poverty in a land where MDs and Ph.D.s earn $18 a month, and a pair jeans cost twice as much.
