Rezensionen

Speak to Me of Home explores the compassion, frustration, and determination of emigrants from Puerto Rico to America. Cummins' characters leap off the page, many suffering homesickness, some hiding secrets, but all filled with love. A riveting tale of three generations, this is storytelling at its finest John Boyne, author of THE HEART'S INVISIBLE FURIES

"A fine novel. . . . Daisy's sections are the heart of the novel, dipping into magical realism as her spirit navigates the border between life and death and brings the family to her bedside with triumphant and transcendent love. This commendable return for Cummins comes with a surprise cherry-on-top twist."
-Booklist

"Engrossing. . . . Cummins succeeds at breathing life into her large cast of characters and excels at depicting the nuances of a mother-daughter relationship."
