Description

Arthur and Alma have lived their whole life in Mexico. Maribel, their daughter, unexpectedly suffers a serious accident and the likelihood of a full recovery is low. Leaving everything behind, they migrate to the United States with one dream: that in this country filled with opportunities and resources, Maribel s health can be restored. Once they arrive, it doesn t take long before Maribel attracts the attention of Mayor Toro, the son of one of their two neighbors, who sees a kindred spirit in this beautiful, damaged outsider. Their love story sets in motion events that will have profound repercussions for everyone involved. Here Henriquez seamlessly interweaves the story of these star-crossed lovers, and of the Rivera and Toro families, with the testimonials of men and women who have come to the United States from all over Latin America. This extraordinary novel gives us a powerful definition of what it means to be American."
