La Tacita

By Olga Lisa Monges

La Tacita is a deeply reflective story that weaves together heritage, resilience, and belonging themes. Through vivid storytelling, Olga Lisa traces her journey from childhood in a tight-knit Puerto Rican family to the profound moments of survival, love, and loss that defined her adulthood. Central to the narrative are her beloved grandmother, Mama Delia, and her mother, Nilda, whose cultural wisdom and enduring strength shaped Olga Lisa's understanding of home, identity, and family. As Olga Lisa reflects on the lessons learned from these women, La Tacita becomes a tribute to the roots that grounded her and the bonds that sustained her through adversity, including her battle with cancer. With emotional depth and a refined writing style, this memoir is both a personal journey and an exploration of the Puerto Rican spirit-a story of overcoming challenges, honoring tradition, and finding strength in one's heritage.
