There were hundreds of things Marimar wanted to know. Why is this happening? Why can't we stop it? Why didn't you try to tell me sooner? Who are you? Why do this? What broke your heart so completely that it's splinters found their way through generations.

A beautifully woven story of the love and conflict that can exist in family dynamics. As a Latina woman and daughter of immigrants, this story resonated with me deeply and I enjoyed seeing this story and its characters unfold.
