“Abused by fate and family, Ana, the strong-willed protagonist of Limón’s second novel, endures a life of extremes … Frequently riveting.”
—Library Journal
“Should awaken the conscience and compassion that drive and haunt every reader. Alive with the ruin of historical memory and a life of testimony … A novel of absolute stylistic and social integrity … Honest and terrifyingly pertinent … This is a story of the hard realities that command the contemporary choice between personal freedom and familial, cultural tradition.”
