Guillermo Cabrera Infante founded Lunes, the literary supplement to Revolución, which he edited until it was banned in 1961. He was then appointed cultural attaché to the Cuban Embassy in Brussels and promoted to chargé d’affaires, but in 1965, while visiting Cuba to attend his mother’s burial, he resigned from his diplomatic position. His collection of short stories, Así en la paz como en la guerra, has been translated into French, Italian, Polish, Czech, Russian, and Chinese. His novels translated into English include Three Trapped Tigers and View of Dawn in the Tropics. He now lives in London.
