Generales y Doctores - After Forty-Five Years

One of cuba's most important works of prose fiction, Loveira's Generales y doctores , after more than four decades of neglect, has at last had a second edition. It is a work of tremendous social significance, which today needs re-evaluation. But such re-evaluation had best be done outside Cuba. In that unhappy isle, critics now tend to interpret Loveira as an “anti-imperialist” or as a strange kind of “pre-communist.” Roberto Branly's review of the new edition of the work in Pueblo y cultura (No. 14 [1963], pp. 19-23) is illustrated with photographs which convey the idea of a work hostile to the United States: the battleship Maine , the author of the Piatt Amendment, a picture entitled “Generales y doctores en plena faena ... el General Wood y sus secretarios del Despacho”
