What Amazon reviewers are saying

This book should be required reading for every college student in America. I grew up in Miami and knew many Cuban immigrants, but never fully appreciated or understood their plight until reading this book. Very readable and made me feel like I was there during that very sad time in Cuban history.

When I bought this book I figured it would be interesting but it was actually way better than I expected it to be. The author does a great job of weaving her own family's history in with the history of the Cuban revolution and the consequences of the revolution. Highly recommended.
