ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
The survival story of a Colombian lawyer who emigrates to the United States to find work and learn English.
Cristina, a middle-class lawyer in Colombia loses her job and decides to emigrate to New York in the hopes of finding work and learning English. However, her New York life is not what she had hoped: she sleeps on a bunk bed which she shares with an eight-year-old boy, works without proper legal documentation, and her means of survival is to clean apartments for wealthy families.
This fun novel, which reads somewhat like a diary, shares the stories of the made-up universes that Cristina imagines in each of the houses she cleans, as well as her progress learning a language that she can't seem to grasp. The letters written to and from her family offer a reflection of the loneliness that immigrants face and feel, and an accurate depiction of a city as harsh as it is charming.
