ENGLISH DESCRIPTION An ambitious memoir in essays by beloved bestselling author Reyna Grande that illuminates the hidden cost of the American Dream and the complex journey of healing that follows survival.
Reyna Grande has spent her career powerfully capturing the raw reality of life across borders. Her memoirs laid bare the trauma of family separation and celebrated her journey to become a college graduate and a writer. Now, in Migrant Heart, she offers her most probing and intimate work yet, turning her gaze inward to expose the scars left by migration and the ongoing work of stitching herself back together. Grande unflinchingly interrogates how living between two nations, two languages, and two identities has shaped the woman, mother, and writer she has become. In this collection, she confronts the deepest questions of the immigrant experience: How do we bridge the two worlds we live in? What does it cost you to lose your language? How do we turn pain into power? And when traumatic memories threaten to define us, how can telling our story help us heal while honoring our boundaries? Migrant Heart is a powerful testament to Grande's role as a storyteller and cultural witness. It is an essential, moving read that continues to expand what we understand about the United States and the complex people who cross and live within its borders. It is a book for anyone seeking to understand the true price of belonging and the enduring power of finding one's voice.
