En este poético libro de memorias--ganador del premio Pura Belpré de autor, finalista del premio de YALSA de no ficción y premio de honor Walter Dean Myers--la aclamada autora Margarita Engle recrea su infancia, que transcurrió a caballo entre dos culturas durante la Guerra Fría.

Margarita es una niña de dos mundos. Su corazón está en Cuba, la isla tropical de su mamá, un sitio tan exuberante, de una vida tan intensa, que parece el reino de un cuento de hadas. Pero la mayor parte del tiempo, vive en Los Ángeles, sola en la bulliciosa ciudad, soñando con los veranos, en los que puede montarse en un avión y viajar por el aire encantado a su amada isla. Las palabras y las imágenes son compañeras constantes, amistosas y reconfortantes, mientras que los niños en la escuela no lo son.

Entonces estalla una revolución en Cuba. Margarita teme por su familia lejana. Cuando la hostilidad entre Cuba y Estados Unidos se desata en la invasión de Bahía de Cochinos, los mundos de Margarita chocan de la peor manera posible. Cómo es posible que los dos países que ella quiere se odien tanto mutuamente? Y podrá volver a visitar su hermosa isla de nuevo?
