Tres tristes tigres

G. Cabrera Infante

*Tres tristes tigres,* la historia de tres amigos en una juerga desenfrenada por los clubes nocturnos, salas de música, barrios marginales y demás submundo habanero en los años previos a Castro, es la mayor obra literaria de Cabrera Infante. Repleta de cambios de estilo, juegos de palabras y ritmos, a medio camino entre Borges y García Márquez, y Joyce y Kafka, su autor manifestó que «está escrita en cubano». Ganadora del Premio Biblioteca Breve, de la editorial Seix Barral, en 1964, fue publicada por primera vez en 1967, en una versión reescrita por motivos de censura. Vetada por Castro en Cuba, la novela apareció en el periodo de auge del *boom* latinoamericano y es considerada una de las más imortantes de las letras hispanoamericanas.
