| Summary | "Zes maanden op Cuba—Havanna" by Charles Berchon is a travelogue written in the late 19th century. The narrative offers a detailed exploration of Cuba's landscapes, cities, and local customs, particularly focusing on Havana. The author shares his first impressions of the vibrant island, detailing its natural beauty and the unique cultural elements that characterize its capital. At the start of the book, the author describes his arrival in Havana on a clear December morning and conveys his initial excitement about the beauty of Cuba. He provides vivid descriptions of the city's architecture and bustling streets, quickly contrasting the charm with the challenges of navigating its narrow, crowded roads filled with various vehicles and people. Berchon shares his experiences while trying to find suitable accommodations, as well as his observations on the local food culture, highlighting a variety of dishes and ingredients he encounters. As he immerses himself deeper into the life of Havana, he reflects on the interplay of its diverse population, from the well-to-do to the laboring classes, all contributing to the rich tapestry of life in the city.
