Read the excerpt from Cristina Garcia's Dreaming in Cuban.That's it. My mind's made up. I'm going back to Cuba. I'm fed up with everything around here.

I figure if I can just get there, I'll be able to make my way to Cuba, maybe rent a boat or get a fisherman to take me. I imagine Abuela [grandmother] Celia's surprise as I sneak up behind her. She'll be sitting in her wicker swing overlooking the sea and she'll smell of salt and violet water. There'll be gulls and crabs along the shore. She'll stroke my cheek with her cool hands, sing quietly in my ear.The complex narrative structure used in the excerpt is an example ofestablishing a work of fiction that is based on nonfiction.several narrators being used. unconventional text features.the chronological order of events being manipulated.
