They had used him many times, they had been arguing too much about the belonging of the image of him on one side and the other they had been arguing too much about where his image belonged, more or less like in <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">El color del verano<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, Arenas\u2019s novel. So many times had he felt the traitor\u2019s lips on his stone cheek, the flatterer, and the mediocre who had finally collapsed.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In another fantasy, and this one remains unpublished among all the papers I keep, something had suddenly happened that the busts of stone, bronze, marble or whatever the material started eating the Cubans. They had made their appearance in the most terrifying way possible, the cruelest and at the same time the most human.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Slowly he would crush them with his jaws, and he had reasons to slow down or speed up their movements: he savored or swallowed according to the demands of his palate; he bit with hatred or barely touched the body with his teeth when he felt sorry. But, he ended up eating all of them.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is, in this story, a kind of national rebellion that had brought him down from his pedestals wherever they were: in a field, a factory, a school, a hotel, an old abandoned lot&#8230;no matter the context, wherever a bust had been built, he used to see the same face and almost always symbolizing the same thing.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_233780\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-233780\" style=\"width: 960px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/marti-pedro-pablo-oliva-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-233780\" src=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/marti-pedro-pablo-oliva-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"960\" height=\"958\" srcset=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/marti-pedro-pablo-oliva-1.jpg 960w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/marti-pedro-pablo-oliva-1-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/marti-pedro-pablo-oliva-1-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/marti-pedro-pablo-oliva-1-768x766.jpg 768w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/marti-pedro-pablo-oliva-1-75x75.jpg 75w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/marti-pedro-pablo-oliva-1-750x748.jpg 750w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-233780\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Author: Pedro Pablo Oliva. \u201cEspantado de todo,\u201d from the Sillones de mimbre series, 2018.
