Overview

Una historia deĀ violencia, amor, desarraigo y esperanza

Viena, 1938. Samuel Adler es un niƱo judƭo de seis aƱos cuyo padre desaparece durante la Noche de los Cristales Rotos, en la que su familia lo pierde todo. Su madre, desesperada, le consigue una plaza en un tren que le llevarƔ desde la Austria nazi hasta Inglaterra. Samuel emprende una nueva etapa con su fiel violƭn y con el peso de la soledad y la incertidumbre, que lo acompaƱarƔn siempre en su dilatada vida.

Arizona, 2019. Ocho dĆ©cadas mĆ”s tarde, Anita DĆ­az, de siete aƱos, sube con su madre a bordo de otro tren para escapar de un inminente peligro en El Salvador y exiliarse en Estados Unidos. Su llegada coincide con una nueva e implacable polĆ­tica gubernamental que la separa de su madre en la frontera. Sola y asustada, lejos de todo lo que le es familiar, Anita se refugia en Azabahar, el mundo mĆ”gico que solo existe en su imaginaciĆ³n. Mientras tanto, Selena DurĆ”n, una joven trabajadora social, y Frank Angileri, un exitoso abogado, luchan por reunir a la niƱa con su madre y por ofrecerle un futuro mejor.

En El viento conoce mi nombre pasado y presente se entrelazan para relatar el drama del desarraigo y la redenciĆ³n de la solidaridad, la compasiĆ³n y el amor. Una novela actual sobre los sacrificios que a veces los padres deben hacer por sus hijos, sobre la sorprendente capacidad de algunos niƱos para sobrevivir a la violencia sin dejar de soƱar, y sobre la tenacidad de la esperanza, que puede brillar incluso en los momentos mĆ”s oscuros.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

This powerful and moving novel from the New York Times bestselling author of A Long Petal of the Sea and Violeta weaves together past and present, tracing the ripple effects of war and immigration on one child in Europe in 1938 and another in the United States in 2019.
Ā 
Vienna, 1938. Samuel Adler is five years old when his father disappears during Kristallnachtā€”the night his family loses everything. As her childā€™s safety becomes ever harder to guarantee, Samuelā€™s mother secures a spot for him on a Kindertransport train out of Nazi-occupied Austria to England. He boards alone, carrying nothing but a change of clothes and his violin.
Ā 
Arizona, 2019. Eight decades later, Anita DĆ­az and her mother board another train, fleeing looming danger in El Salvador and seeking refuge in the United States. But their arrival coincides with the new family separation policy, and seven-year-old Anita finds herself alone at a camp in Nogales. She escapes her tenuous reality through her trips to Azabahar, a magical world of the imagination. Meanwhile, Selena DurĆ”n, a young social worker, enlists the help of a successful lawyer in hopes of tracking down Anitaā€™s mother.
Ā 
Intertwining past and present, The Wind Knows My Name tells the tale of these two unforgettable characters, both in search of family and home. It is both a testament to the sacrifices that parents make and a love letter to the children who survive the most unfathomable dangersā€”and never stop dreaming.
