Meanwhile “Juanita Castro, the exiled sister of Cuban leaders Fidel and Raul Castro, is set to release her own book, a first-person memoir in which she talks at length about her brothers.

The more than 400-page book titled: My Brothers, Fidel and Raul. The Secret Story is set for release Oct. 26. It is co-written by Spanish-language journalist Maria Antoineta Collins and will be published by Santillana USA.

Juanita Castro left the island in 1964. A longtime Miami resident, she has kept a low profile and for years could be found behind the counter of the small pharmacy she owned. She retired in 2007.

According to a Santillana news release, Castro dictated the story to Collins a decade ago but refused to publish until now.”
