  Is home here or there?

  This is the story of a singer whose voice sailed through the air like the wings of a condor, inspiring people everywhere. 
    
  Written by Aixa Pérez-Prado, this is the powerful biography of Argentinean folksinger and human rights advocate Mercedes Sosa.

In the face of a cruel dictatorship, Mercedes refused to be silenced. She bravely stepped on stage to lend a “voice to the voiceless” with uplifting songs of empathy and empowerment. Her unforgettable music and messages of hope continue to resonate with people across the world to this day. 
    
  "Distilling Argentina's history into accessible text, the work ends on an uplifting note, discussing how the figure's 'songs of empathy and esperanza, fearlessness and fuerza helped the country begin to heal.'"—Publishers Weekly

  settle in the same Lower East Side apartment building. Listeners meet Jenny Epstein, author Weinstein's grandmother, whose Russian Jewish family lived in the building in the 1910s and whose story is sensitively told by Eva Kaminsky. Successive generations include Italian American Anna Cozzi in the 1930s, warmly depicted by Carlotta Brentan; Dominican American José Marte in the 1960s, conveyed with delighted wonder by Robert Jimenez; Puerto Rican Maria Torres in the 1980s, animatedly portrayed by Desiree Rodriguez; and Wei Ye in the present day, whose lively curiosity is beautifully depicted by Albert M. Chan. The 
  production is enhanced by original music, evocative sound effects, and Weinstein's heartfelt narration of her afterword." AudioFile Magazine
