what AUTHORS AND critics say
Finding Mañana: "Ojito’s book is filled with the anguish of separation and the tragedy of living under a merciless regime. But it also celebrates family ties and love, not to mention freedom itself, a gift taken for granted by those of us who have never had to live without it."
— The Wall Street Journal
