Shakespeare in Cuba: Caliban's Books explores how Shakespeare is
consumed and appropriated in Cuba. It contributes to the
underrepresented field of Latin American Shakespeares by applying the
lens of cultural anthropophagy, a theory with Latin American roots, to
explore how Cuban artists ingest and transform Shakespeare's plays. By
consuming these works and incorporating them into Cuban culture and
literature, Cuban writers make the plays their own while also nourishing
the source texts and giving Shakespeare a new afterlife.
