From the perspective of the young adult he once was, Francisco
Jimenez describes the challenges he faces when continuing his
education. During his college years, the very family solidarity
that allows Francisco to survive as a child is tested. Not only
must he leave his family when his goes to Santa Clara University,
but while Francisco is there, his father abandons the family and
returns to Mexico. This is the story of how Francisco copes with
poverty, with his guilt over leaving his family financially
strapped, with his self-doubt about succeeding academically, and
with separation. Once again, his telling is honest and true--and
inspiring.
