| Sumario: | "Southern California radio personality, Alicia Alarcon, invited her immigrant listeners to call in and share their stories. In this collection, Alarcon has recorded the footsteps of these travelers across deserts and rivers, as the narrators suffer hunger and hostility on their way to a fabled "America," land of opportunity." "These intriguing but heartbreaking tales are narrated by young and old, men and women who must overcome the nearly impossible as they hope to find a better place than the one they've left behind. Through gritty details and sly humor, these stories are poignant recollections of making it across, past the natural and the man-made obstacles along the border, as well as cries of frustration about the lives they forge once here in the U.S. of A."--Jacket. |
