Description: "Parental Sins is a family saga novel set in Puerto Rico and New York City during the mid-twentieth century. A portrait primarily of two marriages with many peripheral relationships and characters, it traces the lives of people living through great changes as they move from the land into town, from Puerto Rico to New York. The characters face problems from the world at large and from their own characters, often coming to the brick wall of what they see as fate. The ending is very satisfying as a mother accepts her fate and yet acts with heroic grace" -- Provided by publisher.
