"In The Mambo Kings Play Songs of Love, Mar???ia is the great Cuban beauty who stole musician Nestor Castillo's heart and broke it, inspiring him to write the Mambo Kings' biggest hit, 'Beautiful Mar???ia of My Soul.' Now in her sixties, Mar???ia Garc???ia y Cifuentes is the lady behind the song, living as an exile in Miami. But while she left Cuba decades ago, she has never forgotten Nestor. We now see the Mambo Kings' story through Mar???ia's eyes--and as she thinks back to her days and nights in Havana, an entirely new perspective on the story unfolds. We meet her as an illiterate young woman with unspeakable, head-turning beauty who meets and falls in love with Nestor in Havana, but ultimately chooses to stay involved with a cruel, wealthy lover. When the Cuban Revolution intervenes, Mar???ia and her daughter seek refuge in Miami. And as she finds community with other Cuban women and begins to take lessons at a local college, Mar???ia finally goes from muse to the writer of her own story."--
