A classic. Bulosan gives us so much insight into history and immigration. Incredibly heartbreaking though and I probably wouldn't have finished it if I wasn't reading it with another person! Lots of other thoughts still pending.... excited to see how Elaine Castillo reacts/intervenes in her book America Is Not In the Heart.
