The story of the Garcia family’s adjustment to life in the United States.

Liz says:

“I read this more than 15 years ago and I still consider it as one of the best books that I have ever read. Told from the 4 sisters’ perspectives, we gain a glimpse into the immigrant experience. We learn about each girl’s upbringing in the Dominican Republic under the Dictatorship of Trujillo and their subsequent coming of age stories in New York. Though the finer details escape me now, their stories and their voices still resonate.”
