Carilda was happy with these attentions, and underlined, grateful, that in these circumstances it was impossible to say thank you properly. I will keep that beautifully written message as a treasure, pointed out the author of “Al sur de mi garganta”.

She was very surprised and satisfied for the many congratulations and messages received over the last few days, coming from institutions, friends, intellectuals and admirers from many parts of the island. She gave special importance to the acknowledgements of the Party, the Government, and the office of the Culture Ministry in her beloved Matanzas province.
