"I tried many times to get my mother to write her own life story," said Sharyn Alvarez. "She wasn't interested in taking a walk down memory lane. However, in reviewing her life, I always thought Mom was an interesting person. She, a woman of strength and determination, was a motivating force in my life. I've always been interested in the who, what, where, when, and especially the why of things; as you cannot strive towards or create a bright future for yourself if you don't know who and where you come from."
