Here are a few of the projects that Christopher P. Baker is currently working on. Look for these books:  

MI MOTO FIDEL: Motorcycling Through Castro's Cuba

This drama-filled, first-person literary travelog describes Baker's recent four-month, 7,000-mile journey through Cuba by BMW R100GS motorcycle.

Baker narrates an action-packed sojourn crowded with surreal collages, off-beat adventures, and evocative, often erotic, portrayals. Often hilarious, occasionally hair-raising, Mi Moto Fidel is sure to enthrall.

Seduced by flirty mulattas and Mata Haris... interrogated by agents of state security... and almost washed overboard during a storm-lashed crossing from Key West to Havana, Baker recounts his often hair-raising and hilarious adventures in this absorbing and richly entertaining book full of off-beat observations about this extraordinary island of socialism and sensuality.
