Extraordinary, Riveting, Inspirational... The life recounted in this extraordinary book was lived in Mexico. Rose describes her childhood and that of her brothers and sisters as lacking in love from the time they were very small, and through her memories, she takes us back to the time of our own innocence, adolescence and youth. "As children, we were afraid of our parents. When our father became upset, he would yell at us, cursing and killing our self-esteem with his words. When he felt like it, he would beat us with his fist or with whatever other object was around. . ." This story is based on real-life events. The original Spanish language version, transcribed from the author's handwritten manuscript, as well as the English translation, are both included in this single, powerful book. About the Author: Teresita Luévano lives in New Mexico with her husband, Carlos.
