Seller's Description:
As New. Book Cloth. As New/As New. First Edition. 8vo-over 7¾"-9¾" tall. A child when Castro came to power in 1959, Flor Fernandez Barrios grew up amid the chaotic events of the Cuban Revolution, the possession and ruin of her grandparents' farm, and her parents' bitter disillusionment with the new government. After requesting to leave the country, her family was taunted as "gusanos" and ten-year-old Flor was sent away-along with thousands of other schoolchildren-to a rural work camp where she picked tobacco and sugar cane. When her family left Cuba in 1970, Flor was separated from her cherished grandmothers and Afro-Cuban nanny, Carmen. Uprooted and living in exile, she learned to draw on the spiritual lessons she was taught by the women in her family, and to find her place in a new world. Almost invisible remainder mark.
