Synopsis
Framed by a highly historically accurate introduction on the evolution of immigration in Argentina, this admirable book uses five real-life cases to narrate the process immigrants had to go through upon arriving in the country and, through the lives of these individuals, explores what it's like to live in a place that is not one's own, far from one's usual affections and homeland; what the adaptation process is like and the feeling of being, simultaneously, on two shores and on neither; and what the initial culture shock is like, the strangeness of different habits and customs, and the slow process of assimilation are like.
Histories of Immigration in Argentina portrays a world that is already distant but continues to move us because of its closeness. The real-life characters who populate its pages recount universal feelings of longings and loves, fears and absences. Without a doubt, María Bjerg gives us an unforgettable read with this book.
