About The Author

Idelfonso Morales was born in January 1932 near Havana, Cuba. He attended Havana Business Academy and soon became a successful professor of English. On the eve of the Cuban Communist Revolution in 1959, he left his home country with his wife and came to the United States of America. His magnum opus, Extraordinary Naked, was written over the course of five years following his retirement and published in the winter of 2021. A lifelong reader and student of political philosophy, Idelfonso was inspired by the social realist works of Maxim Gorky as well as his recurrent conflicts with the Soviet regime. Ideas from the psychological analysis of Sigmund Freud and literary stylings of Emily Brontë, as well as the works of other authors, have helped inform his own writing style.
