Cuba Pavilion space for youth

Cuba: Cuban youth will have their space in the International Book Fair, in the centric Cuba Pavilion, one of the parallel venues of the fair in Havana.

In statements to Prensa Latina, Jaime Gomez Triana, vice president of the Association Hermanos Saiz (AHS), outlined several initiatives, one of them is Confluencias "Confluences" that brings together writers from different generations and "it will activate a natural dialogue of continuity and intergenerational rupture, always in the search of a bond."

An exhibition of watercolours of the Cuban anti-terrorist Antonio Guerrero, imprisoned in US jails, will be inaugurated tomorrow, in addition to the book "Habia una vez" (Once upon a time), by Gente Nueva editorial, and editor Esteban Llorach.

Voices against terrorism, forum sponsored by the International Poetry Festival of Havana, will bring together voices of poets and environmental activists from different latitudes.

One of the main moments of the Meeting Hall will be the circulation of the books "Jose Lezama Lima, ese misterio que nos acompana" and "Así hablaba Lezama" (Jose Lezama Lima, the Mystery that Accompanies us; Thus Spoke Lezama), to honour the centenary of Paradiso's author birth.

Besides, films will be screened and the public will have a varied gastronomic and handicrafts offer, while groups as Kelvis Ochoa, Aceituna sin hueso, and young DJs (disc jockeys), including Djoy Wichy D Vedado and Djoy D Cuba will provide entertainment. Havana, Prensa Latina
