   Reviews. “A resolutely intimate book. . .with a finely tuned sense of irony. . . . If Concepcion were only about Samaha’s mother, it would already be wholly worthwhile. But she was one of eight children in the Concepcion family, whose ancestry Samaha traces in this. . .powerful book.” –The New York Times.
