あらすじ・解説
On course to become a graphic designer in her native country, Xiomara decided instead to join her husband, Pedro. He had escaped to the U.S. to avoid the violence and pressures local gangs in El Salvador exerted on young men. Leaving the familiar with no sense of what was facing her and unable to speak English, she and her young son Francisco came to this country in 2007. Working in a nursing home’s laundry with Brazilian immigrants did little to further her English acquisition. Slowly, with increasing confidence, she could speak and be understood enough in English to help her father grow his moving company. Now, as the business’s office manager, she writes quotes and invoices, administers customer concerns, arranges schedules, and works with people in transition from around the world.
