This Transactions of the IBG Plenary lecture looks at some of the ways in which writers, geographers, and artists have imagined the island of Cuba. Particular attention is paid to the image of the island as a body. The dominant context for the paper is the long historical relationship between Cuba and its powerful northern neighbour.
