The Gorilla Reading Series Presents I AM A CUBAN SANDWICH 1/25

By:

Author Richard DiPietra takes you on a journey through the physical and cultural life of Ybor City. Not the Ybor of today with its bar scene and late night revels. This is what Ybor was, before time and Interstate 4 cut through the heart of a very special place.

DiPietra, a native of Tampa, has looked back and blended his true remembrances with touches of fiction, to created an honest and touching look into the human experience of growing up - especially growing up in a melting pot that simmers with the smell of Spanish Bean Soup and fresh baked Cuban Bread - the kind that has the palm frond in it.

These stories will remind you of what Tampa was and perhaps even what you were growing up.

The reading takes place Monday, January 25 at 7PM. Tickets: $5

Gorilla Pass Holders: FREE 

Reservations are HIGHLY recommended.

Reservation line: (813) 879-2914
