In her foreword, Carmen Rodriguez says she has reworked both the Spanish and English versions of this book many times, and it shows. Each sentence, though rendered in quiet prose, is poem-perfect. The stories render the horrors of the revolution in Chile, and the low-key style just points up the humanity of the victims in unthinkable circumstances. The difficulties of adjusting to Canadian life for Chilean transplants is equally heart-rendering. This is a must-read for youth and adults alike. I loved this book!
