By Kamil KendersHAVANA TIMES – There’s a Guava tree in Miguel’s yard. Right there, amid the smoke and heat, Miguel also makes jam. Little by little, acquaintances of acquaintances began to show up to buy jam and drink juice. Every time I see him coming back down the same street, I think that, in reality, he isn’t just bringing me some guava jam. I’m savoring the taste of perseverance.
