Obviously, we want to make money from our novel-in-progress about Cuba. We're currently compiling a list of possible agents; any interested literary agent reading this is invited to email us.
Two points:
1. Other recent and upcoming books and movies about Cuba focus on either the past in Cuba or the present somewhere else, usually Miami. Our novel is about Cubans in Cuba today.
2. The form of the story --using surveillance technology and epistolary passages-- lends itself readily to four realizations or adaptations:
1. A radio play
2. A multi-media stage play
3. A screenplay for a film
4. The novel itself
If you're interested in beaming a Cuban Spanish version of La Pionera And The New Mango into Cuba, please email us.
