英文简介:
New York Times Bestseller * Read With Jenna Book Club Pick as seen on Today * Winner of the Los Angeles Times Christopher Isherwood Prize for Autobiography * Winner of the American Library Association Alex Award A young poet tells the inspiring story of his migration from El Salvador to the United States at the age of nine in this “gripping memoir” (NPR) of bravery, hope, and finding family.
Finalist for the PEN/John Kenneth Galbraith Award for Nonfiction * One of the New York Public Library’s Ten Best Books of the Year Longlisted for the Andrew Carnegie Medal for Excellence and the PEN/Open Book Award “I read Solito with my heart in my throat and did not burst into tears until the last sentence.
What a person, what a writer, what a book.
“–Emma Straub “A riveting tale of perseverance and the lengths humans will go to help each other in times of struggle.
“–Dave Eggers ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR: The New York Times Book Review, NPR, The Washington Post, San Francisco Chronicle, Vulture, She Reads, Kirkus Reviews Trip.
My parents started using that word about a year ago–“one day, you’ll take a trip to be with us.
Like an adventure.
” Javier Zamora’s adventure is a three-thousand-mile journey from his small town in El Salvador, through Guatemala and Mexico, and across the U.
S.
border.
He will leave behind his beloved aunt and grandparents to reunite with a mother who left four years ago and a father he barely remembers.
Traveling alone amid a group of strangers and a “coyote” hired to lead them to safety, Javier expects his trip to last two short weeks.
At nine years old, all Javier can imagine is rushing into his parents’ arms, snuggling in bed between them, and living under the same roof again.
He cannot foresee the perilous boat trips, relentless desert treks, pointed guns, arrests and deceptions that await him; nor can he know that those two weeks will expand into two life-altering months alongside fellow migrants who will come to encircle him like an unexpected family.
A memoir as gripping as it is moving, Solito provides an immediate and intimate account not only of a treacherous and near-impossible journey, but also of the miraculous kindness and love delivered at the most unexpected moments.
Solito is Javier Zamora’s story, but it’s also the story of millions of others who had no choice but to leave home.

我的父母大约一年前开始使用这个词——“有一天，你会和我们一起旅行。
就像一次冒险。
”哈维尔·萨莫拉 (Javier Zamora) 的冒险之旅是从他位于萨尔瓦多的小镇出发，穿越危地马拉和墨西哥，最后跨越美国边境的三千英里旅程。
他将离开他深爱的阿姨和祖父母，与四年前离开的母亲和他几乎不记得的父亲团聚。
哈维尔独自旅行，周围是一群陌生人，还有一只被雇来带领他们安全的“土狼”，他预计他的旅行将持续短短两周。
九岁时，哈维尔所能想象的就是冲进父母的怀抱，依偎在他们中间的床上，再次生活在同一个屋檐下。
他无法预见危险的乘船旅行、无情的沙漠跋涉、尖枪、逮捕和欺骗等待着他；他也不知道，这两周将成为改变生活的两个月，而他身边的移民同胞也会像意想不到的家人一样包围着他。
索利托的回忆录既扣人心弦又感人至深，它不仅直接而亲密地描述了一次危险且几乎不可能的旅程，而且还描述了在最意想不到的时刻所传递出的奇迹般的善意和爱。
《索利托》是哈维尔·萨莫拉的故事，也是数百万人别无选择只能离开家的故事。
