Forced to leave their home, the entire family travels all night for
twenty hours by bus, arriving at the U.S. and Mexican border in
Nogales, Arizona. In the months and years that follow, Francisco,
his mother and father, and his seven brothers and sister not only
struggle to keep their family together, but also face crushing
poverty, long hours of labor, and blatant prejudice. How they
sustain their hope, their goodheartedness, and tenacity is revealed
in this moving sequel to The Circuit. Without bitterness or
sentimentality, Francisco Jimenez finishes telling the story of his
youth.
