Sample Book Insights:
#1 I was flying back to the country of my birth with my wife, Rubi, after a twenty-year absence. I looked out the window at the desert below and realized that even though it seemed endless, the landscape had limits.
#2 My mother, the youngest of seven children, was born in 1958. She could never remember the song her father had whistled as he approached their ranch on La Loma, but she could always still hear the tune in her head many years later.
#3 Amá’s father died in 1958, leaving her to care for her three younger siblings. She would spend her days stealing eggs from the henhouse and trading them at the store for candies and a radio.
#4 Amá’s mother, Amá Julia, was a very devout Catholic. When the news came that her husband Jesús had died, she and her seven children all wore black dresses for six months as a rite of mourning.
