About this listen
Ana Canción, de quince años, nunca soñó con mudarse a Estados Unidos, como lo hicieron las niñas con las que creció en el campo dominicano. Pero cuando Juan Ruiz propone y promete llevarla a la ciudad de Nueva York, ella tiene que decir que sí. No importa que tenga el doble de su edad, que no haya amor entre ellos. Su matrimonio es una oportunidad para que toda su familia unida pueda eventualmente emigrar. Entonces, en el día de Año Nuevo de 1965, Ana deja todo lo que sabe y se convierte en Ana Ruiz, esposa confinada a un frío departamento en el sexto piso de un edificio en Washington Heights. Solitaria y miserable, Ana trama un plan para escapar. Pero en la terminal de autobuses, César, el hermano menor de espíritu libre de Juan, la detiene y la convence de quedarse.
A medida que la República Dominicana cae en la agitación política, Juan regresa para proteger los bienes de su familia, dejando a César para cuidar de Ana. De repente, Ana es libre de tomar clases de inglés en una iglesia local, recostarse en la playa de Coney Island, ver una película en el Radio City Music Hall, ir a bailar con César e imaginar la posibilidad de un tipo diferente de vida en Estados Unidos. Cuando Juan regrese, Ana debe decidir una vez más entre su corazón y su deber con su familia.
En una prosa musical brillante que refleja la energía de la ciudad de Nueva York, la Dominicana de Angie Cruz es un retrato vital de la experiencia de los inmigrantes y la historia intemporal de una joven que encuentra su voz en el mundo.

Story
Fifteen-year-old Ana Cancion never dreamed of moving to America, the way the girls she grew up with in the Dominican countryside did. But when Juan Ruiz proposes and promises to take her to New York City, she has to say yes. It doesn’t matter that he is twice her age, that there is no love between them. Their marriage is an opportunity for her entire close-knit family to eventually immigrate. So on New Year’s Day, 1965, Ana leaves behind everything she knows and becomes Ana Ruiz, a wife confined to a cold six-floor walk-up in Washington Heights.

Guy Montag is a fireman. In his world, where television rules and literature is on the brink of extinction, firemen start fires rather than put them out. His job is to destroy the most illegal of commodities, the printed book, along with the houses in which they are hidden. Montag never questions the destruction and ruin his actions produce, returning each day to his bland life and wife, Mildred, who spends all day with her television "family."

Story
Johnnie Rico never really intended to join up—and definitely not the infantry. But now that he’s in the thick of it, trying to get through combat training harder than anything he could have imagined, he knows everyone in his unit is one bad move away from buying the farm in the interstellar war the Terran Federation is waging against the Arachnids. Because everyone in the Mobile Infantry fights. And if the training doesn’t kill you, the Bugs are more than ready to finish the job.
