- Summary:
- "Angelica, after a long absence, returns to Puerto Rico when her father, Wilfredo, suffers a heart attack. The unexpected return to the house where she grew up, plus her father's illness, force Angelica to re-evaluate her relationship with her mother, who has always disdained her because of her race, with family members who are clearly racist, and with her partner in New York, who travels to Puerto Rico in an attempt to recapture her. All this will force her to face herself and discover that she does not know who she is, and moreover that she does not accept herself. After the death of her father, Angelica must decide whether to return to the comfort of her previous life, dissatisfied but secure, or set on an adventurous path to rediscover herself as an independent woman, modern, strong, mulatto and Puerto Rican, in a globalized world in the cusp of the twenty-first century." -- Alexander Street Press.
