Holy Guacamole!!! This one made me cry too. I understand why everyone raves about this book now!"When I was a young man, I was a policeman," Lito said. "There was a ship - a ship full of Jews, from Europe. And we sent them back. I sent them back! Sent them back to die when we could so easily have taken them in! It was all politics, but they were people. Real people. I met them. I knew them by name" pg. 276"Lito was wrong. She didn't have to be in Havana to hear it. To feel it. She had brought Cuba with her to Miami" pg. 308"He was filled with sadness for the boy his age. The boy who had died so Ruthie could live. But Mahmoud was also filled with gratitude. Josef had died so Ruthie could live, and one day welcome Mahmoud and his family into her house" pg. 316
