Description
Nueva York, 1936. A small food stand called El Capitán begins its journey on Catorce Street, one of the few Spanish colonies in the city. After the accidental death of its owner, Emilio Arenas, his twenty-year-old daughters are forced to take control of the business while a court resolves the payment of a promised settlement.
As they navigate the challenges of survival, Victoria, Mona and Luz Arenas must confront their own temperaments and find a way to turn their dreams into reality. With an engaging and moving narrative, Las hijas del Capitán tells the story of three young Spanish women who were forced to cross an ocean, settle in a vibrant city, and fight to find their path.
This book is a tribute to the women who resist when faced with adversity, and a celebration of those brave individuals who have lived and continue to live the adventure of emigration.
