Of Women and Salt

So deftly woven is the story of five generations of women anchoring this book that I find it hard to believe this is her debut novel. You will travel from present-day Miami to detention centers to cigar factories in 19th century Cuba. At the heart of all these stories is a maternal line fraught with complications, with no shortage of love and passion. Controversy aside, if you loved the story at the heart of ‘American Dirt,’ this book is for you.
