Overview

RECOMENDADO POR JENNA BUSH EN SU CLUB DE LECTURA DEL TODAY SHOW

Ā«
En esta conmovedora autobiografĆ­a que no podrĆ”s soltar, un joven poeta relata la inolvidable historia de su desgarradora migraciĆ³n hacia Estados Unidos desde El Salvador a los nueve aƱos, considerada 'el viaje mĆ­tico de nuestra era'.Ā» ā€”Sandra Cisneros


Viaje. Mis padres empezaron a usar esa palabra hace mĆ”s o menos un aƱo: ā€œun dĆ­a vas a hacer un viaje para estar con nosotros. Como una aventuraā€.
Ā 
La aventura de Javier es una travesĆ­a de tres mil millas desde su pequeƱo pueblo en El Salvador, a travĆ©s de Guatemala y MĆ©xico, hacia la frontera de Estados Unidos. DejarĆ” atrĆ”s a sus queridos abuelos y su tĆ­a para reunirse con una madre que se fue cuatro aƱos atrĆ”s y con un padre al que prĆ”cticamente no recuerda. Al viajar solo, a excepciĆ³n de un grupo de extraƱos y un coyote contratado para guiarlos a salvo, Javier debĆ­a tardar solo dos semanas en llegar.
Ā 
A los nueve aƱos, todo lo que Javier puede imaginar es correr a los brazos de sus padres, acurrucarse en la cama entre ellos y vivir bajo el mismo techo otra vez. No puede prever los peligrosos trayectos en bote, las interminables caminatas por el desierto, las armas apuntƔndole, los arrestos y los engaƱos que le esperan. Tampoco sabe que esas dos semanas se alargarƔn hasta dos meses y le cambiarƔn la vida, junto a un grupo de extraƱos que acabarƔ por cobijarlo como una familia improvisada.
Ā 
Una autobiografĆ­a tan apasionante como emotiva, Solito no solo nos ofrece un recuento Ć­ntimo e inmediato de un viaje sinuoso y casi imposible, sino la milagrosa bondad y el amor que se entrega en los momentos mĆ”s inesperados. Solito es la historia de Javier, pero es tambiĆ©n la historia de millones mĆ”s que no tuvieron otra opciĆ³n mĆ”s que irse de casa.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

READ WITH JENNA BOOK CLUB PICK AS FEATURED ON TODAY

Ā«A young poet tells the unforgettable story of his harrowing migrationfrom El Salvador to the United States at the age of nine in this moving, page-turning memoir hailed as "the mythic journey of our era".Ā» ā€”Sandra Cisneros

Trip. My parents started using that word about a year ago ā€”ā€œone day, youā€™ll take a trip to be with us. Like an adventure.ā€

Javierā€™s adventure is a three-thousand-mile journey from his small town in El Salvador, through Guatemala and Mexico, and across the U.S. border. He will leave behind his beloved aunt and grandparents to reunite with a mother who left four years ago and a father he barely remembers. Traveling alone except for a group of strangers and a "coyote" hired to lead them to safety, Javierā€™s trip is supposed to last two short weeks.

At nine years old, all Javier can imagine is rushing into his parentsā€™ arms, snuggling in bed between them, and living under the same roof again. He cannot foresee the perilous boat trips, relentless desert treks, pointed guns, arrests and deceptions that a wait him; nor can he know that those two weeks will expand into two life-altering months alongside a group of strangers who will come to encircle him like an unexpected family.

A memoir as gripping as it is moving, Solito not only provides an immediate and intimate account of a treacherous and near-impossible journey, but also the miraculous kindness and love delivered at the most unexpected moments. Solito is Javierā€™s story, but itā€™s also the story of millions of others who had no choice but to leave home.
