Summary:
"Tracing the four days from the moment she gets the call that every immigrant fears to the burial of her mother, Nunez tells the haunting story of her lifelong struggle to cope with the consequences of the 'sterner stuff' of her parents' ambitions for their children, and her mother's seemingly unbreakable conviction that displays of affection are not for everyday use"--Jacket flap.
