Esperanza risked her life fleeing the Dominican Republic for the
glittering dream she saw on television, but years later she is
still stuck in a cramped tenement with her husband, Santo, and
their two children, Bobby and Dallas. She works as a home aide and,
at night, hides unopened bills from the credit card company where
Santo won't find them when he returns from driving his livery cab.
When Santo's mother dies and his father, Don Chan, comes to Nueva
York to live out his twilight years with the Colons, nothing will
ever be the same. Don Chan remembers fighting together with Santo
in the revolution against Trujillo's cruel regime, the promise of
who his son might have been, had he not fallen under Esperanza's
spell. Let it Rain Coffee is a sweeping novel about love, loss,
family, and the elusive nature of memory and desire.
