Enthralled admirers of Esmeralda Santiago s memoirs of her childhood have yearned to read more. Now, in The Turkish Lover , Esmeralda finally breaks out of the monumental struggle with her powerful mother, only to elope into the spell of an exotic love affair. At the heart of the story is Esmeralda s relationship with "the Turk," a passion that gradually becomes a prison out of which she must emerge to become herself. The expansive humanity, earthy humour, and psychological courage that made Esmeralda s first two books so successful are on full display again in The Turkish Lover .

Esmeralda Santiago is the author of two highly acclaimed memoirs, The Turkish Lover and Almost a Woman, which was made into a film for PBS s Masterpiece Theatre. She has also written a novel, America s Dream, and has co-edited two anthologies of Latino literature. She lives in Westchester County, New York.
