Recenzii
"Torn Apart is a poignant reminder that our country must change our immigration policies to keep families together, not split them apart ... [this book] should instill in all of us a sense of urgency to right this wrong." -Mike Honda, congressman, California "[In Torn Apart] you'll meet people willing to fight for their relationships, expatriate themselves for their relationships, and bankrupt themselves for their relationships. This book is really a collection of love stories, detailing the lengths people are willing to go to in order to preserve our families." -Angel Curtis, OutSmart Magazine (April 2011)
