Coro del silencio

From December 1960 to October 1962, more than fourteen thousand Cuban youths arrived alone in the United States. What is now known as Operation Pedro Pan was the largest recorded exodus of unaccompanied minors in the Western Hemisphere. Author Rodríguez Díaz chronicles his experience as one of these children and exposes the sexual abuse he and others suffered at the hands of Catholic priests charged with caring for them. A compelling testimony of coming of age, abuse and making peace with his Cuban heritage.
