Synopsis

Breaking the silence, an exceptional witness to Cuba’s recent history, Daisy L Kramer, the only Cuban who defied Castro’s State Security to travel to Mexico in 1966, reveals with courage and precision the deceptions that shaped a nation's fate. In Enough with the Lies, the educator narrates chronologically how Fidel Castro, through manipulation and deceit, turned Cuba from a promise of liberty into a socialist state in under two and a half years, and a communist dictatorship in less than five. This book exposes hatred toward the United States as a propaganda tool to excuse the inefficiencies and failure of a system that has turned the island into a failed state. With convictions from her personal experience, the author shares her story as a young woman who believed in the regime, describing her eventual decision to emigrate in 1990, spurred by discovering her son planned to flee on a raft with friends. This work is not just a historical chronicle; it's a heartbreaking testimony of the disillusionment and awakening of a generation that saw their ideology collapse.
