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."

KOZER, Jose. La garza sin sombras. Bar: Ediciones del Mall, 1985. First edition of this volume of poems by the Cuban exile poet who for many years taught in New York and who now resides in Spain. Kozer is one of the leading voices in Latin American verse at this time and among the chief exponents of the neo-baroque movement. Kozer's opus will certainly constitute one of the key documents of the strange cultural life of Cuba in our time when finally the dust has settled and we can see with clear eyes. A better than near fine copy in illustrated stiff self-wraps. A lovely edition. Signed by Kozer on the front free endpaper.
