2.0 out of 5 stars Las Hermanas Aguero
The book seems to be good, but the translation is poor, and it is full of spelling errors - I only wished I had read the book in original language to really enjoy it! Between the translation and the spelling errors, it is very hard to read!! It is not a relaxing exercise any more. Pity!

5.0 out of 5 stars Las Hermanas Aguero - una obra maestra!, June 30, 2000
This review is from: Las hermanas Agüero (Paperback)
This book is a wonderful story of two sisters that have lived separated for most of their lives. A view into life in Cuba and life in the US as an immigrant. The constant strugle between ones personal beliefs and those instilled by the Cuban government to it's people. It is most importantly about "familia" and the story of the Agueros (3 generations of them). I highly recommend this book (also available in English). Good use of imagery. I had forgotten I purchased it and just recently found it in my bookcase and what a surprise it turned out to be.
