Enchanted Air: Two Cultures, Two Wings: A Memoir by Margarita Engle

5.0

This is a poignant memoir in verse about Margarita’s experience as a child of two cultures. Her words float across the page. Margarita beautifully balances the vibrance of Cuba and the noise of Los Angeles during Cold War and Missile Crisis. The title reflects the content because this book has wings. It lifts readers to another time and place in history and vividly captures her childhood.
