Yoani Sánchez, she is the protagonist of this story, was born in 1975. Twenty years ago a child, just as he completed a degree in English literature, philology Hispanic and Latin American literature contemporary. Thesis: Parole under pressure. A study of the literature of the dictatorship in Latin America. A theme that perhaps as content can be played in a perfectly orthodox, but already the title of which may play a flamboyant statement, in a context such as that of the Castro regime. Once the University decides that in fact the ivory tower of philology is not his vocation, and 2000 is used at the Editorial Gente Nueva. But with the state salary in Cuba do not maintain a family, and she began to give lessons to the illegal English German tourists visiting Havana. A choice of dissent have already implied, to enter into the parallel, but widely in Cuba, if only for mere survival needs. Anyway Yoani can remain at a higher level: not only with respect to students or graduates who prostitute themselves, but also to the engineers who get to drive a taxi, the teachers who are employed in hotels or brain surgeons and nuclear physicists who are salesmen in the shops for tourists.
