Must Be An American Citizen, Guadalupe Astorga
First-Gen Voices: Creative and Critical Narratives on the First-Generation College Experience
Living in a limbo state is something many individuals have experienced throughout America’s history, and it is something author Guadalupe Astorga has lived through firsthand. Though she has worked to make Los Angeles her home since moving from Mexico as a young girl, Astorga struggles with the legal definition of “American,” which causes her to feel as though she is living a border existence with “little to no control over [her] future.” Through an exploration of collected memories, Astorga fights against the fear, impatience, and doubt over her “American” identity, but as she waits for an interview that will decide …

Too Much Of Everything And Not Enough, Guadalupe Mejia
First-Gen Voices: Creative and Critical Narratives on the First-Generation College Experience
For author Guadalupe Mejia, the notion of identity as a multifaceted marker of one’s personhood created a sense of confusion and displacement within her. She struggled with a feeling of not belonging. Chronicling some of her experiences leading up to her college years, Mejia attempts to negotiate the ways in which her lived experiences, heritage and customs, and language and accent play a role in the person she strives to be and is expected to be. In the end, she comes to terms with her multicultural reality as a first-generation college student and first-generation U.S.-born American, but it isn’t easy.

Chasing Ghosts: A Memoir Of A Father, Gone To War [Table Of Contents], Louise Desalvo
History
When literary biographer and memoirist Louise DeSalvo embarked upon a journey to learn why her father came home from World War II a changed man, she didn’t realize her quest would take ten years, and that it would yield more revelations about the man—and herself—and the effect of his military service upon their family than she’d ever imagined. During his last years, as he told her about his life, DeSalvo began to understand that her obsession with war novels and military history wasn’t merely academic but rooted in her desire to understand this complex father whom she both adored and …
