When Fidel Castrd Opened the Mariel harbor to let Cubans sail for America, Edel Rodriguez and his family took their chance. From the town of EI Gabriel to the Mariel port to a rickety shrimping boat bound for Florida, they joined the 1980 boatlift, becoming "worms," as Castro called the departing Cubans. Years later, Edel Rodriguez has become one of the most prominent political artists of our age, hailed for his iconic work on the cover of Time and on jumbotrons around the world. In stunning visual detail, Worm tells his story-of a boyhood in Cold War Cuba, of a family's courage and displacement, and of coming of age as an artist, activist, and American.
