    Are you kidding?
  

*by K***H on Reviewed in the United States on July 7, 2013*

Was this a far-fetched attempt to compare the writer to Hemingway because he too spent time in Cuba?  Didn't get the point .........so he drank, got caught up with a woman who used him, and..........................what?  Loved it and wanted to go back for more? I kept reading to get to the point and somehow missed it.  The hype was better than the book.  Sorry.

    On escapism and growin up...
  

*by L***S on Reviewed in the United States on July 27, 2012*

After reading the first couple of chapters, my first - and luckily short-lived - impression of Caliente was that of a male sexual fantasy staged in an exotic country, with free flowing women, booze, fraud and minor crime, all there to imaginably man-up the main character. A biased female reader, admittedly, and without a hint of prejudice, I was wrong. The true value of the book is only apparent when one looks beyond the brutal, explicit, offensive and ugly. Caliente is a beautiful narrative of a real-life getaway from dullness and tediousness of western life, especially its predictability and tenuous social and moral norms.In his late forties, with a disappointing job and divorce behind him, Hilton could be experiencing a perfect mid-life crisis. But that would make the book mind-numbing. Instead, he plans, and then executes his escape from England with a criminal-mind precision, which leaves the rest of us in awe of his arrogance. Hilton wants to be alive again and he does it in style. Once established in Cuba, with a beautiful, albeit agonisingly difficult, woman on his arm, Hilton is not self-absorbed, rather painfully vulnerable and almost childish in persisting in making mistakes (all too clear to the locals), which lead to his broken heart, confused head, ill health and dried up wallet.Hilton likes money but not the ugly consumerism represented by high class hotels in Cuba. Money assists him in getting almost uneasily close to the locals with their own life wisdoms, traditions, superstitions and morals. This escapism becomes the most powerful drug to Hilton. Is he in love with Yamilia, as he believes, or is he addicted to her, the only woman who represents all Cuban things equally: the good and bad, beautiful and ugly, noble and corrupted. There is a price to pay of course. Hilton realises there is no escape from Cuba for him. The ending of Caliente will make many a reader shout out: is Hilton selfish, mad, or plain irresponsible? Has he got a problem growing up? Luckily, Hilton does not care... The best book suggesting how to grow up I read in ages.

    a must read....
  

*by M***P on Reviewed in the United States on July 18, 2012*

The unique quotes at the start of each chapter keep the reader intrigued to what is coming next and also adds the personal touch and makes you feel involved.The story begins with excitement and the `anything possible' theme as Hilton jets off to Cuba. Throughout the first few chapters, the reader is able to form a clear picture of the scene, themes and characters. The characters seem like people you already know and are happy to see again. The scenery and descriptions of Cuba makes the book even more enjoyable. There are excellent character descriptions and it makes you feel very involved as a reader.The book provides hints of reality to highlight to the reader that life is never so simple...As I read on, I was intrigued about Yamilla, as despite her extrovert character and her irascible manner but I couldn't help but like her....especially as she becomes a close companion for Hilton during his trip and all the trouble that came with it.Hilton's book motivates you to runaway with the story and ponder that dreams can be accomplished when you feel life is dragging you down...nothing stops you for making instant decisions and enjoying life to the fullest, especially when love is involved.At times the reader is able to escape and feel they are in Cuba soaking up the sun with a mojito in one hand and Hilton's book in the other....Being able to jet off with big stash of cash and enjoy Cuban culture and then being mesmerized by a Cuban lover. What more could you want as a reader to escape from everyday life.Infused with emotion, failed love, death, healing, vivid settings, romance and a second chance at light, this story is unforgettable.Hopefully there will be a second book from Hilton with more interesting curves to tease us with..
