ARENAS, Reinaldo. Termina el desfile. Barcelona: Seix Barral, 1981. Octavo, 174pp. First edition thus, adding the title story to the contents of the collection published without authorization in Uruguay in 1972, Con los ojos cerrados. The present early short fiction won Arenas an honorable mention in the Writers' Union Competition in 1968, but his work was banned soon afterward. He managed to have two copies of the manuscript smuggled out of Cuba, the one which was eventually published by Angel Rama in Uruguay became the seed of intense contention when Arenas discovered its existence only twelve years later in New York. The present text might be called the "first authorized edition." This copy inscribed by Arenas to fellow writer-in-exile Jaime Manrique, "con amor y admiracion, su amigo y lector, Reinaldo Arenas. 1985, New York."
