Farewell to the Sea (Spanish: Otra vez el mar) is a 1982 novel and the third in Cuban author Reinaldo Arenas's Pentagonia series, which critics have often argued as his best.[1] It was published in English in New York in 1987.

Set on a Cuban beach immediately following the revolution, a disenchanted poet mourns for the new suppression while his wife longs for the connectivity that she can no longer find.
