A Legend of the Future (Cuban Science Fiction)

A Legend of the Future (Cuban Science Fiction)

â€œFinally, we have the chance to read a landmark work from one of Cubaâ€™s greatest science fiction writersâ€¦. If you like intensely psychological sci-fi that deftly piles on the suspense, this novelâ€™s for youâ€¦. The boundaries between dream and reality, and then between human and machine, almost melt away as the story progresses. And it is de Rojasâ€™s skillful manipulation of those boundaries that makes A Legend of the Future so addictive.â€Â â€”SF Signal

The first book by the father of Cuban science fiction to be translated into English, this mesmerizing novel, reminiscent of Arthur C. Clarkeâ€™s 2001: A Space Odyssey, is a science-fiction survival story that captures the intense pressuresâ€”economic, ideological, and psychologicalâ€”inside Communist Cuba.

A Legend of the Future takes place inside a spaceship on a groundbreaking mission to Titan, one of Saturnâ€™s moons; back home, a final conflict between warring superpowers threatens the fate of the Earth. When disaster strikes the ship, the crewmembers are forced into a grand experiment in psychological and emotional conditioning, in which they face not just their innermost fears, but the ultimate sacrificeâ€”their very humanity.
