520    "Twenty-five-year-old Melanie Carvajal, a hardworking but 
       struggling journalist for a Miami newspaper, loves her 
       Colombian mother but regularly ignores her phone calls, 
       frustrated that she never quite takes the time to 
       understand Melanie's life. When the opportunity arises for
       a big assignment that might save her flagging career, 
       Melanie follows the story to the land of her mother's 
       birth. She soon realizes Colombia has the potential to 
       connect her, after all these years, to something she's 
       long ignored: her heritage, the love of her mother, her 
       family, and the richest parts of herself. Colombia offers 
       more than a chance to make a name for herself as a writer.
       It is a place of untold stories. Inspired by real-life 
       events, An American Immigrant is a story of culture and 
       community, of abiding commitment to family, and of 
       embracing our culture and the generations that have come 
       before."--|cProvided by publisher.
