“Tales of an Inland Empire Girl is a searing, beautiful memoir that illuminates the struggles of parents who are beaten down by life and their arduous working-class jobs and of children who are trapped in the middle of their parents’ battles. A compelling read-raw, honest, and hopeful. I wish this book existed when I was growing up. It would have been my life preserver.” liz gonzález, author of Dancing in the Santa Ana Winds
