Abstract: 
This article explores representations dealing with a collective memory of slavery in the Cuban novel Las negras brujas no vuelan, published in 2007 in Havana by Eliseo Altunaga. The analysis focuses on specific text passages which illustrate a trance state experienced by the Afro-Cuban protagonist Yoandri, who lives in Havana in the 1990s and becomes initiated into the Afro-Cuban religious cult of Palo Monte. In terms of theoretical framework the study refers to limbo imagination, a concept which has been introduced by the Guyanese writer Wilson Harris in his essayistic work.
