Sobre IBD

A Childhood in Ninety Miles is a novel about exile and belonging, about the parents who save their children by letting them go, and about the children who spend their lives learning what was given to them in that act of love. It is a story about growing up between worlds - and discovering that the distance between them is not a wound. The children left Cuba through Operation Pedro Pan - the secret Catholic program that airlifted over fourteen thousand Cuban children to safety in the United States It is the length of a life.
