The Sugar Island
- Binding: Hardcover
- Publisher: Houghton Mifflin
- Publish date: 09/01/2000
The story is familiar from today's headlines, but The Sugar Island takes place in the 1960s, at the height of Castro's revolution. Tanya's mother, passionate and unreliable, is determined to flee her homeland no matter the cost. Yet Tanya is unsure of her motives, and unsure of her love. Their fraught relationship echoes the island's instability, as Tanya finds herself caught between the old world of Cuba and the new.
Lamazares's extraordinary talent for capturing this drama drew early attention from Mary Morris and Russell Banks. Already profiled in the national press, including the New York Times and the Los Angeles Times, this young Cuban-American novelist is sure to join the roster of beloved Latina writers such as Cristina Garcia, Ana Castillo, and Sandra Cisneros.
