A family facing poverty, hopelessness and danger in their home in Columbia immigrate to the U.S. in secret. A child is born in the U.S., the father is deported during a round-up and the eldest daughter returns to Columbia to help him care for her grandmother. They spend years trying to stay a family.
The story is told over time from the lives of those in Columbia and the U.S. The struggles they bear felt very real and gave me a different perspective on those wanting a better life. Good read.
