Brilliant

Roberto Lovato’s memoir digs into his family’s story and his Salvadoran cultural story. His aim is to reveal what’s been buried in silence. With its passion for language, character, and history, Lovato’s Unforgetting is a triumph.

Difficult to hear but important to know.

This is an excellent audio book about a very difficult past that we, as United States citizens, are complicity bound with. The message that people cannot move forward unless they know and acknowledge their past—no matter how difficult—is an important one for all people. I wish it had a happy ending but there is hope for the future and it’s so important to know what is behind the massive migration of people from the south and how the violence has developed. I recommend this well written and read book.

Healing history

Beautiful memoir that helps us understand El Salvador and elsalvadoreños rather than allowing politicians to stereotype and define them as nothing more than gangs.

Great Book!

This is an amazing book that intertwines family with history, and theory. It also addresses the role of the US which is important for us to reflect on as Americans. It is a must read for any Salvadoran and also those who want to understand their story and perspective.

The insight of the author

As a Nicaraguan and a United States citizen. I am grateful for Mr. Lovato’s willingness to share his story. The Genocide in Gaza is perpetuated by the same US military forces that embolden the Israeli and Salvadoreño paramilitary forces to exterminate the native pueblos of our lands. The belief that some human beings are superior than others gives sadists and facists the impunity to commit crimes against humanity and get away with them. This book is a reminder that the massacre of innocent people committed by the military of El Salvador and Israel and funded by the United States will have its reckoning. I will wait…
