In Almost Home, H. B. Cavalcanti, a Brazilian-born scholar who has spent three decades working and living in the US, reflects on his life as an immigrant and places his story within the context of the larger history of immigration. He reflects on the dynamics of acculturation, immigrant parenting, interactions with native-born US citizens, and the costs involved in rejecting his country of birth for an adopted nation. He also touches on many of the factors that contribute to migration in both the 'sending' and 'receiving' countries.
