One of The Atlantics Great American Novels of the Past 100 Years

A collectible hardcover thirtieth-anniversary edition of Julia Alvarezs modern Latinx classic that gives voice to four sisters as they grow up in two cultures, featuring a new foreword by New York Times bestselling, National Book Awardwinning novelist Elizabeth Acevedo

A Penguin Vitae Edition

The García sistersCarla, Sandra, Yolanda, and Sofíaand their family must flee their home in the Dominican Republic after the discovery of their father''s role in an attempt to overthrow the brutal dictator Rafael Trujillo. They arrive in New York City in 1960 to a life far removed from their existence in the Caribbean. In the wondrous but not always welcoming United States, their parents try to hold on to their old ways as the girls try to find new lives: by straightening their hair and wearing American fashions, and by forgetting their Spanish. For them, it is at once liberating and excruciating to be caught between the old world and the new. In Julia Alvarez''s beloved first novel, How the García Girls Lost Their Accents, the sisters tell their stories about being at homeand not at homein America.
