Summary
Eisner Award-nominated artist Mike Hawthorne presents a true and tragic graphic novel memoir about family, abuse, survival and what it means to be Puerto Rican in America. Mike Hawthorne's mother is left alone to raise her son in New York City, a city that torments them both with its unforgiving nature.
