Home: A Refugee Story (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798285683698)

HOME is a unique memoir that reveals how the author's place of birth became a force that profoundly shaped his entire life. Salvador and his family fled Cuba after the communist revolution in the 1960s. The book begins with the author's birth during a gun battle, continues with his escape and eventual arrival in New Orleans, and also recounts his travels back to the island as an adult. The island and his search for home and belonging have influenced his entire life, career, and relationships. This timely book also explores immigration, the concept of straddling two cultures, and the process of assimilation. It also examines the histories of Cuba and New Orleans, exploring their past and present connections.
