How the Garcia Girls Lost Their Accent by Julia Alvarez Dear Diary, Today Mami and Papi decided that we four sisters should go the Island for the summer. They dont want us to lose touch with la familia, but the hidden agenda is marriage to homeland boys. Everybody knows that once a girl marries an American, those grandbabies come out jabbering in English and thinking of the Island as a place to go get a suntan. We dont mind a couple of weeks, but a whole summer? (P. 109) (Diary entry)(Map)
