In conjunction with The Wolfsonian-Florida International University special exhibition Promising Paradise: Cuban Allure, American Seduction, the Wolfsonian Book Club is digging deeper into the importance of Cuba in the cultural history of the U.S. From the rumba and mambo to cigars and mojitos, Gustavo Firmat’s “The Havana Habit” (2012) illustrates the allure of Cuban culture to the American imagination.
