Presentation of Nosotros, los de ahora…

The beginning of the International Book Fair in Matanzas was the propitious moment to present the volume Nosotros, los de ahora… (We, those of now…).

The text, coordinated by the Pablo Neruda literary workshop of the University of Matanzas and the Society of Chilean Writers, is a poetic anthology with the participation of 25 Cuban and Chilean writers, among them Humberto Fuentes from Matanzas.

The presentation was attended by members of the workshop, as well as Matanzas authors present in the book. During the presentation, Professor Carlos Chacón Zaldívar explained that Nosotros los de ahora is available in its digital version on the web page of the University of Matanzas.
