Summary
Snow Dancing in New Jersey is divided into 30 heartwarming, culturally rich chapters. It follows Blanca’s—an abused Latina young woman from Dominican Republic—haunting life. Blanca was mentally abused by her father and brothers, and later, both mentally and physically abused by her husband. Eventually, she flees from her husband and comes to the US. Her life is depicted within the background of Union City, New Jersey, in the 1990s.
As Blanca becomes adjusted to life in the US, her husband is looking for her and eventually finds her. Her abuse starts all over again when Blanca says she wants to finish school and make a life for herself as an independent woman. By now, Blanca is no longer subservient as her parents had taught her to be. Blanca also experiences life issues such as immigration, learning a second language, robbery, loss of family, and the hardships of life in a new country. Will Blanca ever escape her aggressor?
