Industry Reviews "America Gonzalez, the protagonist of 'America's Dream', is such a fully realized character that, halfway through the book, you begin to construct in your head little monologues with which to confront her, help her, convince her....Her observations on her life in America are wholly believable and warmly funny." Boston Book Review - Theresa Everline (06/19/1996)
"...a contemporary twist to the immigrant experience....a work of fine reportage, as well as an engrossing if often somber tale with a quiet but always tenacious heroine." Shapiro
