A vacant lot, rat-infested and filled with garbage, looked like no place for a garden. Especially to a neighborhood of strangers where no one seems to care. Until one day, a young girl clears a small space and digs into the hard-packed soil to plant her precious bean seeds. Suddenly, the soil holds promise: To Curtis, who believes he can win back Lateesha's heart with a harvest of tomatoes; to Virgil's dad, who sees a fortune to be made from growing lettuce; and even to Maricela, sixteen and pregnant, wishing she were dead.
Thirteen very different voices -- old, young, Haitian, Hispanic, tough, haunted, and hopeful -- tell one amazing story about a garden that transforms a neighborhood.

Simple but inspiring.
评分繁华都市深处的一隅荒地,演绎了美国酱缸文化的一个缩影;复杂而又迥异的人生际遇,在用心耕种与付出中,收获的不仅仅是果实,还有人生中简单的快乐;当我们刨开坚硬的土地时,其实同时也打开了自己的内心,融化了种族、语言、甚至敌意与仇恨
评分明天就要考试了,MD
