People don't change from facts - they learn through emotion. Reading fiction is the best way to change your life and perspective. It allows you to experience the world through someone else's eyes, and your ego won't be threatened. After all, it's fiction, right?
In this podcast, I discuss one of the best books I've read this year (or in my life) called Dominicana by Angie Cruz. It describes the immigrant experience of a young 15-year old girl from the Dominican countryside who is married to a 30 something year old man she doesn't love in order to move to New York and try to make a better life for herself and her family.
