As a signal of homage and continuity, young writer Julio Jimenez from the city of Santiago de Cuba received the Special Award for Best Novelist for the 100 Years of the Birth of Jose Soler Puig, as the end of a Colloquium on his memory.
With a book titled 'Acido Bloq de Notas' (Acid Notepad) the young writer reached the award among several proposals from different authors, and different parts of Cuba.
A flower offering to the niche that holds Soler's remains in the Pantheon of the Revolutionary Armed Forces, in the Santa Ifigenia Cemetery, started the day that included the placement of a plaque in his grave and the presentation of texts related to his life and work.
Introducing the number four in the magazine La Gaceta de Cuba,Cira Romero referred to the dossier dedicated to a critical view of the task of the Cuban novelist, with articles by Dr. Graziella Pogolotti,filmmaker Rebeca Chávez and writers Miguel Mejides, Eric Caraballoso and Francisco López Sacha.
Manuel Gomez Morales, on behalf of the literature section of the provincial branch of the National Union of Writers and Artists (UNEAC), commented the reedition of El Caserón, one of the key pieces of the narrative of Soler Puig, who was defined as a writer of contradictions.
For his part, Yunier Riquenes, director of the Claustrofobias literary promotion platform, 'interviewed' the novelist from a summary of answers about a world of things, a work based on the life of a working family and the saga of 100 years of revolutionary struggles of Cubans.
The president of UNEAC, Rodulfo Vaillant, evoked the life of the artist in front of the second subsidiary of the literary organization in the country, and said that the event was able to draw attention to the legacy of the first Casa de Las Américas Award winner, with his novel Bertillon 166.
