Set against the backdrop of the 1963 hurricane season in Cuba, this historical novel follows Maria Sirena as she recounts her life story to a group of women seeking refuge in a sugar mill. Through her vivid narrative, Acevedo explores the complexities of Cuban identity, the weight of political upheaval, and the enduring strength of familial bonds across generations.
