The Book of Unknown Americans
by Christina Henriquez

"A boy and girl who fall in love. Two families whose hopes collide with destiny. An extraordinary novel that offers a resonant new definition of what it means to be American."

En Espanol:

Dos jóvenes que se enamoran. Dos familias cuyas esperanzas chocan con el destino. Y una extraordinaria novela que nos ofrece una poderosa y nueva definición de lo que significa ser americano.
