Description

Luba and her cousin Ofelia are acclimating to a new life in the United States. When Ofelia decides to chronicle her life with Luba in a tell-all book, she discovers inspiration in Luba's young children--the one-armed Casimira, Socorro with the photographic memory, the loner Joselito, and the silent Conchita--who lead her into a haunted field where the disembodied voice of a crying baby opens the floodgates of memory, even memories Ofelia has spent a lifetime trying to forget.
