Since the end of the 19th century, the reader of the tobacco shop in Cuba has been cultivating and entertaining the tobacco twisters in the manufacture of cigars. As a result of the demand from cigar makers, who were illiterate at first, the reader became an original troubadour. For more than a century, his poetry recitals and readings from the masterpieces of world literature have soaked the tobacco leaves that cigarette makers twist monotonously for ten hours a day. Although the reader is today an endangered species, some, like Juan, memorize poems daily in the public library and years ago they stopped speaking prose.
