Marjorie Agosin proves the power of the word to transport us to the center of her humane and human vision.

Everyone needs a strong sense of self. It is our base of operations for everything that we do in life.

A book does not discriminate against any reader. All are welcome at the table of literature.

It's like my whole world is coming undone, but when I write, my pencil is a needle and thread, and I'm stitching the scraps back together.

When we read, even if the characters are tragic or sad or disturbing, these are our brothers and sisters in the human family.

It's always gratifying to hear from a passionate reader, and as a longtime educator, I'm especially pleased and heartened when that reader is a young student who is inspired to write me and let me know that my book has helped him or her find her way.
