«Las vacaciones de Hegel» is the novel by Armando Valdés, published by Betania in 1999 in paperback (128 pages, in Spanish).
Set between Havana and Paris, it narrates the journey of a Cuban professor to a literature colloquium. A Magritte painting, a smell of the sea, the search for a woman announced by a santero, and echoes of Cuban and universal literature compose a plot that questions the act of writing and the doubt of staying or not.
The novel belongs to Betania's Narrative Collection. An early version was a finalist for the Félix Trigo Short Novel Prize in 1997.
For readers of new Cuban narrative and stories about identity, displacement, and the encounter between cultures.
