Description
This powerful memoir follows a young girl’s coming-of-age amid poverty, family separation, and the difficult journey between Mexico and the United States. After her parents leave to seek work across the border, she and her siblings must navigate abandonment, hardship, and the hope of reunion while building lives in two worlds. With honesty and vivid emotional detail, the narrative explores immigration, identity, resilience, and the lasting impact of the American dream on one family. It is a moving portrait of the distances—geographical and emotional—that shape a life.
