The Book of Rosy
- A Mother’s Story of Separation at the Border
- Narrated by: Almarie Guerra, Jayme Mattler
Compelling and pressingly important, The Book of Rosy is the unforgettable story of a brave mother and her battle to save her family.
When Rosayra “Rosy” Pablo Cruz made the painful decision to seek asylum in the United States with her two children, she knew the journey would be arduous, dangerous, and potentially deadly. But she has no choice: violence – from gangs, from criminals, from spiraling chaos – is turning everyday life into hell. Rosy knows her family’s only chance of survival is to flee Guatemala and head north.
After a brutal journey that left them dehydrated, exhausted, and nearly starving, Rosy and her two young sons reached the Arizona border. Almost immediately, they were arrested by government officials and forcibly separated under the Department of Homeland Security’s new “zero tolerance” policy. To her horror, Rosy discovers that her flight to safety has only just begun.
In The Book of Rosy, with an unprecedented level of sharp detail and profoundly soulful intimacy, Rosy tells her story with the help of Julie Schwietert Collazo, founder of Entered Families Foundation Live Together, a grassroots organization that helps reunite mothers and children. She reveals the cruelty of detention facilities, the excruciating pain of feeling her children ripped from her arms, the unwavering faith that staved off despair – and her enduring friendship with Julie, which helped her overcome the darkness and bottomless Orwellian bureaucracy.
A gripping account of the human cost of inhumane policies, The Book of Rosy is also a paean to the unbreakable will of people united by true love, a sense of justice, and hope for a better future.
The Book of Rosy tells a moving, devastating but ultimately uplifting story about the resourcefulness and camaraderie of women and the power of motherhood. It tells the stories of two mothers’ quest for a better life.
