One of the most popular places in Cuban Miami is a restaurant called Versailles, which also has lots of mirrors on its walls. It has been on Eighth Sweet and Thirty-Fifth Avenue for many years and shares the same name with the famous French palace. One goes to the Versailles not only to be seen, but to be multiplied (复制). This old, cheap, noisy restaurant that serves basic Cuban food is wonderful for the self-absorbed: people who like themselves very much. Because of the bright light, even the windows reflect (反射), the Versailles is a place where you can lunch, but you can’t hide.
For years I have had the idea that those mirrors keep the blurred image (模糊影像) of every- one who has walked past before them. I think the mirrors have a memory. Every Cuban who has lived or set foot in Miami over the last 30 years has, at one time or another, seen himself or herself reflected on those shiny surfaces. Miami is a Cuban city not only because of the number of Cubans who live there but also because of the number who have died there. The Versailles is a shiny place where dead people are buried. The history of Little Havana is written on those walls. This may have been why, when the mirrors came down in 1991, there was such anger against it that some of them had to be put back. The Hall of Mirrors is also a house of spirits.
