La Mujer Latina Series
In the eleven short tales, author Benforado weaves together the oral history of a family of Sephardic Jews, from their close knit home in Turkey to their new lives in America.
They are stories of a heritage that spans the globe, of centuries-old traditions transported to a different world, and of people who held tightly to the ways of their ancestors, who, like them, left their homes to settle in a strange new land.
Bring Me a Story stands as a living testament to a people born of their Hispanic ancestry, Jewish tradition and immigrant experience.
