Review: compelling narrative on the American identity - I’ve used this book as the centerpiece for my Composition 1 course , Richard Rodriguez tells a compelling story about his assimilation into American society. His predictions came true and his book speaks volumes about what the American identity is, and the struggles one faces as an immigrant.
Review: a great read! - I read this book to complete an assignment for a "Teaching Diverse Learners" class. I enjoyed it personally and appreciate Mr. Rodriguez eloquent sharing as a future educator. He articulates well his own experience. Because of the ways I related to his experience, I can believe that many other minority and white students could experience similar emotions and struggles. This book was perhaps the most helpful assignment in this class!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very interesting
*by K***R on June 25, 2023*

This book should be read by every student who is the first person in their family to go to college. Particularly if they grew up speaking a language other than English. These students lose their native culture by choice to become "American" and often their children want to regain the family's culture that their parents have lost. I taught English as a second language and saw many families fall apart as the children went on to college and almost felt ashamed of their hard working but uneducated parents. Sad! This is one boy's experience of how this happened to him. It is well written and illuminating.
