To help, Ada and Shirley’s daughter, Graciela, suggests a vacation in Puerto Rico for the extended group, as an opportunity for Luz to unearth long-buried memories and for Marysol to learn more about her mother’s early life. But despite all their careful planning, two hurricanes, back-to-back, disrupt their homecoming, and a secret is revealed that blows their lives wide open. In a voice that sings with warmth, humor, friendship, and pride, celebrated author Esmeralda Santiago unspools a story of women’s sexuality, shame, disability, and love within a community rocked by disaster.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"a-expander-content a-expander-partial-collapse-content\" aria-expanded=\"false\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Esmeraldo Santiago","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47234485682478,"sku":null,"price":33.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0513\/8120\/7210\/files\/las-madres-esmeraldo-santiago-lobo-nosara.jpg?v=1697038162"},{"product_id":"learned-by-heart","title":"Learned by Heart","description":"\u003cdiv data-csa-c-id=\"14ju7y-bepxly-1lvir4-t7f8fq\" data-csa-c-is-in-initial-active-row=\"false\" data-csa-c-asin=\"1955690456\" data-csa-c-slot-id=\"bookDescription_feature_div\" data-csa-c-content-id=\"bookDescription\" data-csa-c-type=\"widget\" data-feature-name=\"bookDescription\" class=\"celwidget\" id=\"bookDescription_feature_div\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"a-expander-collapsed-height a-row a-expander-container a-spacing-base a-expander-partial-collapse-container\" data-a-expander-collapsed-height=\"140\" data-a-expander-name=\"book_description_expander\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"a-expander-content a-expander-partial-collapse-content\" aria-expanded=\"false\"\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold\"\u003e“A wrenching love story” (Chris Bohjalian, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold a-text-italic\"\u003eThe Washington Post\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold\"\u003e) based on the true story of two girls who fall secretly, deeply, and dangerously in love at boarding school in 19th century York, from the bestselling author of \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold a-text-italic\"\u003eRoom \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold\"\u003eand \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold a-text-italic\"\u003eThe Wonder.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDrawing on years of investigation and Anne Lister’s five-million-word secret journal,\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eLearned by Heart\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eis the long-buried love story of Eliza Raine, an orphan heiress banished from India to England at age six, and Anne Lister, a brilliant, troublesome tomboy, who meet at the Manor School for young ladies in York in 1805 when they are both fourteen.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eEmotionally intense, psychologically compelling, and deeply researched, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eLearned by Heart\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e is an extraordinary work of fiction by one of the world’s greatest storytellers.
