Lost and Found in Cuba: A Tale of Midlife Rebellion

Frantic to escape a soul-deadening position and the drone of middle age, psychologist Jeanne Lemkau grabbed the raft of professional leave and sailed to Cuban shores to conduct research on health care and the effects of the U.S. embargo. When her best efforts collided with the realities of communist Cuba, a more personal agenda emerged--to belatedly claim her right to solo adevnture and to figure out how to construct a more joyful life. This subversive memoir is the tale of one woman's refusal to ignore the inner restlessness that calls for change. It will inspire readers to fling off their corsets and blinders and hurl themselves into the whirl of the largest kind of world.
