About the Book:
Step back in time with Cuban-American author Maday Martinez de Osaba as she
recounts her family’s rich history—the trials, joys, triumphs, and the life that happens in
between. She beautifully unravels the elaborate details of her family and how they overcame the tragedies that life sometimes throws at us. Martinez de Osaba’s intricately woven words and stories remind the reader to celebrate the journey rather than the destination. She exposes layers of the human spirit and the intangible longing a soul has to find love and make it a home. Follow along on this epic journey—from 1930s Cuba to an escape to Spain from Castro's oppression, and finally to freedom in the United States. Martinez de Osaba chronicles her family lineage and history with honesty and authenticity. This is a story about what we find when we seek to discover our family's past. We always find more than we knew—both the good and
bad—which make our life stories worth telling.
Maday Martinez de Osaba was born in Havana, Cuba, and moved to the United States by
way of Spain when she was eleven months old. She has worked as a writer, reporter, and
interpreter in English and Spanish with several large print and broadcast media outlets. Martinez de Osaba is a writer, speaker, presenter, and voiceover talent for Fortune 500 companies, nonprofits, and charitable organizations. She currently leads a writer’s group to help fellow authors develop their writing projects. Martinez de Osaba resides in Atlanta, GA. Visit her website at www.madaymartinezdeosaba.com.
