- The previous three Padura novels, Havana Red, Havana Black, and Havana Blue were widely praised in the US and the UK and are in their third reprints. They are Bitter Lemon’s best selling titles with sales of over 50,000. 2. An insiders view: Padura lives in Cuba, writes often scathing novels about post-revolutionary Cuba that are uncensored, perhaps because they are also tight, sensual mystery novels. Not another strident novel by an embittered Florida exile but an insightful tale of loving disillusionment. 3. Padura’s masterful prose and eye for detail evoke the crumbling architecture, peeling paintwork and a pulsating, searing sensuality beneath the tropical sun of Havana.
