Reviews
"Entrancing. . . . There is a radiance to this saga. . . . the empathy with which Cummins envisions her characters is a poignant reminder that it is actual human beings who approach our borders, each with a singular story to tell." -- The Washington Post "Elegantly constructed and a pleasure to read. . . . Puerto Rico, with its waterfalls, hummingbirds and tentacular banyan trees, is deftly evoked, as is its shift from a place of palaces and poverty to an Airbnb-studded tourist hub. . . . the results are delectable." -- The Times (UK) "Filled with vibrant prose and emotion." -- Woman's World " Speak to Me of Home hops through time to tell a touching story about roots and belonging." -- Real Simple "A fine novel. . . . Daisy's sections are the heart of the novel, dipping into magical realism as her spirit navigates the border between life and death and brings the family to her bedside with triumphant and transcendent love. This commendable return for Cummins comes with a surprise cherry-on-top twist." -- Booklist "Engrossing. . . . Cummins succeeds at breathing life into her large cast of characters and excels at depicting the nuances of a mother-daughter relationship." -- Publishers Weekly "[A] moving novel." --AARP, "Spring's Top Reads" "Jeanine Cummins' Speak To Me Of Home is a masterful love letter to our shared homeland of Puerto Rico, the global diaspora, and every American. Once again, Cummins surveys the depths of the immigrant experience and compassionately examines the push and pull between our individual identity and our ancestral ties. Through three generations of Boricua women, the novel powerfully demonstrates that the greatest inheritance we can pass on is a courageous heart willing to adapt. Speak To Me Of Home is an epic must-read!" -- Sarah McCoy, New York Times , USA Today , and international bestselling author of Whatever Happened to Lori Lovely? "Jeanine Cummins' new novel is a beautiful, tender, complex story of origin, displacement, identity, and belonging. Poetically written and brimming with heart, Speak to Me of Home tells of a family's yearning, through the generations, to find the roots that truly anchor them, the land that calls them home. A most moving and meaningful read." --Jennifer Rosner, award-winning author of Once We Were Home and The Yellow Bird Sings, "Entrancing. . . .

Synopsis
What does it mean to call a place home? From #1 New York Times bestselling author Jeanine Cummins comes a deeply felt multigenerational family story On her wedding day in San Juan, Puerto Rico, in 1968, Rafaela Acuña y Daubón has mild misgivings, but she marries Peter Brennan Jr. anyway in a blaze of romantic optimism. She has no way of knowing how dramatically her life will change when she uproots her young family to start over in the American Midwest, unleashing a fleet of disappointments. In the 1980s, against the backdrop of her mother's isolation in St. Louis, Missouri, Rafaela's daughter, Ruth, wants only to belong. Eager to fit in, Ruth lets go of her language, habits, and childhood memories of Puerto Rico. It's not until decades later when Ruth's own daughter, Daisy, returns to San Juan that her mother and grandmother begin to truly reflect on the choices that have come to define their lives. When a hurricane ravages the island in 2023, leaving Daisy critically injured, Rafaela and Ruth return to the city where their story began. As they gather at Daisy's bedside, we follow them back into the moments that brought them to this point: We watch as they come of age, fall in love, take risks, and contend with all the heartbreaks, triumphs, and reversals of fortune--both good and bad--that make up a meaningful life. As old memories come to light, so do buried secrets, leaving everyone in the family wondering exactly where it is that they belong. A striking, resonant examination of marriage, family, and identity, Speak to Me of Home is ultimately a story of mothers and daughters that asks: How can three women who share geography and genetics have such wildly different ideas of where they come from? And, more important, can they discover a common language to find their way back home?
