Fantastic U.S.-Cuba Saga

Captured By World-Class Photos!!
      A Cuban-American named Lisette Poole is considered to be America's best photo-journalist. She is particularly famed for capturing the paradoxes and ingenuities that shape the lives of Cubans who love their enigmatic island passionately as well as those who feel obliged to leave it for the lures of the nearby United States, which looms enticingly 90 miles across the Florida Straits.
       This Lisette Poole photo, for example, screams out the secret thoughts of this Cuban: Does she want to stay on her beloved but targeted island or is she thinking about going to the United States. Lisette Poole's photos eerily reveal the souls of Cubans.
       A new book by Lisette Poole is a fantastic portrait of the depths of the U.S.-Cuban saga in its modern dimensions but it has also been evolving since 1492, the year Christopher Columbus founded both the island and what became the United States. The title of the book is: "La Paloma y La Ley" {"The Dove and The Law"}. With stunning photos, it chronicles an arduous 8,000-mile journey through 13 countries of two Cuban women -- Liset Barrios and Marta Amaro -- determined to get to the USA, with Lisette Poole and her unique skills as a photo-journalist taking us along with them.
       This Lisette Poole photo, for example, should help the new book be a best-seller and be kept on coffee tables as a constant reference that takes us inside the priceless and vivid nuances of the ongoing U.S.-Cuba conundrum. In this case, two Cuban women embarked on a dangerous, 8,000-mile journey to get to the United States after President Obama ended the Cuba-only Wet Foot-Dry Foot law that gave easy privileges to any Cuban touching U. S. soil. The end of Wet Foot-Dry Foot for these two Cuban women resulted in the torturous 8,000-mile from Cuba to the U. S. as opposed to the 90-miles across the sea from Havana to Key West, Florida.
         This Lisette Poole photo shows Marta and Liset resting in a jungle stream on their 8,000-mile trek to the USA.
       But, incredibly, this Lisette Poole photo shows Liset Barrios arriving in O'Hare International Airport in Chicago after her determined 8,000-mile journey from Cuba to the United States of America. Liset joined the essence of the Cuba-U.S. saga.
Lisette Poole's incredible new book.
