À propos de cet audio
The Coconut Latitudes is a memoir about a childhood in paradise, a journey into unexpected misery and a twisted path to redemption and truth.
Leaving a successful career in the US, a father makes a fateful decision to settle his wife and two young daughters on an isolated beach in the Dominican Republic. He plants ten thousand coconut seedlings and declares they are the luckiest people alive. In reality, the family is in the path of hurricanes, and in the grip of a brutal dictator.
Set against a backdrop of shimmering palms and kaleidoscope sunsets, a personal crisis causes the already fragile family to implode. The Coconut Latitudes is about surviving a reality far from the envisioned Eden and the terrible cost of keeping secrets. This compelling memoir balances a child’s wonder with adult compassion, ultimately revealing the transformative power of truth and love.
