Interview with NPR Fresh Air host Terry Gross: https://www.npr.org/programs/fresh-ai...

This interview was amazing. Sad, humbling, and heart-warming. Those from immigrant families that try to balance both words - native country and America, should be able to relate to the author. Author, born to an American mother and a Mexican father struggled with two cultures. He faced a lot of racism growing up and talks of those insulting experiences.
This book was inspired by his brother Juan, who had a different
father. When you have a chance, please listen to this interview!
