Remanso: The Revealing Reality of a Cuban-American Woman

Remanso is the gripping true story of how Sarah Triana and her family gave up everything in the quest for freedom. It provides a revealing account of what life was like in Cuba during the first decade after Fidel Castro gained control of the country on January 1, 1959. It tells how lives were negatively affected by the loss of freedom through a communist doctrine, what people who disagreed with Fidel Castro's regime endured, and the difficult choices they were forced to make during that time. But most importantly, Remanso reveals every aspect of Triana's life-growing up in Cuba, the death of her mother when she was just nine years old, and becoming a woman living in the United States. It illustrates her life as a teenager adjusting to a new language while attending school in the Unites States. It demonstrates how her strong beliefs and convictions guided her through difficult experiences such as divorce and becoming a single mother. Inspiring and spiritually empowering, this memoir communicates what being a "mother" is all about.
