A partir de una exhaustiva investigaci???n, Rosa Marquetti recupera su legado, los inicios y desarrollo de la carrera de la m???s universal de las cantantes cubanas. Celia en Cuba (1925-1962) no es una novela, un libro de an???cdotas o un ensayo: es todo eso y mucho m???s. Mediante una apasionante y precisa narraci???n, con testimonios de primera mano, la autora recrea el mundo habanero donde se desarroll??? la carrera de Celia Cruz: los clubes, teatros, programas de televisi???n y de radio, y las grabaciones discogr???ficas donde brill??? desde el inicio. Era el mundo del Tropicana, el Montmartre, el Sans Souci, la cadena de televisi???n CMQ, Radio Progreso, el Teatro Blanquita y de la llegada de los grandes hoteles gestionados por la mafia de Estados Unidos. La autora sit???a a Celia Cruz en ese convulso panorama, iluminando la compleja relaci???n de la artista cubana con el clima social de esa ???poca y el comienzo de la pol???tica imperante en su pa???s a partir de 1959. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION DISCOVER THE ORIGINS OF "THE QUEEN OF SALSA" Almost a hundred years after her birth, the myth of Celia Cruz does not fade away. From an exhaustive investigation, Rosa Marquetti recovers the legacy, the beginnings and development of the career of the most universal of Cuban singers. Celia in Cuba (1925-1962) is not a novel, a book of anecdotes or an essay: it is all that and much more. Through an exciting and precise narration, with first-hand testimonies, the author recreates the Havana world where Celia Cruz's career developed: the clubs, theaters, television studios and radio booths, and the recordings where she sparkles from the beginning. It was the world of the Tropicana, the Montmartre, the Sans Souci, the CMQ television network, Radio Progreso, the Blanquita Theater and the arrival of the large hotels managed by the United States mafia. The author places Celia Cruz in this convulsive panorama, highlighting the complex relationship of the Cuban artist with the social climate of that time and the beginning of the prevailing politics in her country from 1959 onwards.
