Negative Positive
Title: Wasted Potential
Review: The potential for this book was tremendous. The author is the daughter of Lolita Lebron, the Puertorican independentist imprisoned for, along with a group of men, storming Congress and riddling it with bullets.Instead of telling us what it was like growing up in a *revolutionary* atmosphere, during the short spurts of time spent with her mother - or offering some insight into who her mother was and how she became what she became, instead Irene Vilar obsesses on a tenuous thread of mental illness and wastes an opportunity to tell a great story.There remains a great story to be told.
