Her daughter, Carmen, a Cuban immigrant, is determined to learn more about her family history from her reticent mother and makes the quick decision to take in a neighbor's daughter who is being detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement. Carmen, still grappling with the trauma of displacement, must navigate her difficult relationship with her mother while trying to raise the wayward Janet. Unwavering in her quest for understanding, Janet travels to Cuba to see her grandmother and grapple with secrets from the past that are destined to come to light. From 19th-century cigar factories to present-day detention centers, from Cuba to Mexico, Gabriela García Márquez's *Of Women and Salt* is a kaleidoscopic portrait of the betrayals—personal and political, self-inflicted and those perpetrated by others—that have shaped the lives of these extraordinary women. A painful meditation on the choices mothers make, the legacy of memories they carry, and the perseverance of women who choose to tell their stories despite those who would silence them, this is more than just a story of diaspora; It's a story about America's most tangled and honest human roots.\u003c\/h2\u003e","brand":"Bookland","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43407869804698,"sku":"9781529031553","price":57.0,"currency_code":"AED","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0603\/9335\/7466\/files\/of-women-and-salt-book-fanar_662067a2-b5b5-499a-a964-edca9e6d2823.jpg?v=1694372055","url":"https:\/\/bookfanar.com\/en\/products\/of-women-and-salt","provider":"Book Fanar","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
