Una impresionante novela debut sobre la lucha de una joven madre peruana indocumentada que está dispuesta a darlo todo por su familia y su nueva vida en Nueva York.

Ana Falcón, junto con su esposo Lucho y sus dos hijos pequeños, huyeron de la lucha económica y política del Perú en busca de una nueva vida en la ciudad de Nueva York en la década de los 90. Sin embargo, al ser una inmigrante indocumentada, sus oportunidades se ven reducidas. En poco tiempo, Ana se encuentra endeudada con una prestamista que se hace llamar Mamá, y sus largos turnos de trabajo en la fábrica son cada vez más extenuantes. Para empeorar las cosas, Ana también debe soportar las incesantes críticas de Valeria, la prima de Lucho, quien ha dejado en claro que la familia de Ana no está bienvenida a quedarse mucho tiempo más en su pequeña habitación de huéspedes.

A medida que aumenta la tensión, Ana cae cada vez más en desesperación. Mientras Lucho sueña con regresar a Perú, Ana se encuentra profundamente atormentada por los demonios que dejó atrás en su país natal, y está decidida a perseverar en su nuevo hogar. ¿Pero cuántos sacrificios estará dispuesta a hacer antes de admitir la derrota y regresar al Perú? ¿Y qué líneas estará dispuesta a cruzar para proteger a su familia?

A stunning debut novel about a young undocumented Peruvian woman fighting to keep her family afloat in New York City

Ana Falcón, along with her husband Lucho and their two young children, has fled the economic and political strife of Peru for a chance at a new life in New York City in the 1990s. Being undocumented, however, has significantly curtailed the family's opportunities: Ana is indebted to a loan shark who calls herself Mama, and is stretched thin by unceasing shifts at her factory job. To make matters worse, Ana must also battle both criticism from Lucho's cousin--who has made it obvious the family is not welcome to stay in her spare room for much longer--and escalating and unwanted attention from Mama's husband.

As the pressure builds, Ana becomes increasingly desperate. While Lucho dreams of returning to Peru, Ana is deeply haunted by the demons she left behind and determined to persevere in this new country. But how many sacrifices is she willing to make before admitting defeat and returning to Peru? And what lines is she willing to cross in order to protect her family?
The Affairs of the Falcóns is a beautiful, deeply urgent novel about the lengths one woman is willing to go to build a new life, and a vivid rendering of the American immigrant experience.

Beautiful book for kids sadly really bad packaging and shipment
Format: Board book, Format: Board book
SUPER PRETTY BOOK!!!! 🥹🤎🤎🤎🤎 EXCEPT packaging and shipment considering it's an international shipment. Living it here because CS team restricted my account saying I kept asking for refund or replacement. What do they want me to do? Don't believe their "we trust you" if they have told you "you DONOT need to share proof", thats a lie.

Really simple stories, really small book, but good
Format: Board book
I thought these books were gonna be a little bigger but they are pretty small. But it ends up being a nice easy carry for the child. The stories are super summarized versions of the stories if they can,skipping a whole lot, or just like this princess knows or likes or does this and this is why they are insert adjective of story here. They have great pictures for the Littles to look at and super easy pages for them to turn.
