Finding Connection Through Solito

  • by Sarah Colwell

In a quiet corner of International House Davis on a Tuesday evening, a group of about a dozen Davis community members and UC Davis faculty, staff and students gathered for conversation that was anything but small. They came together to discuss Solito — Javier Zamora’s powerful memoir of migration from El Salvador to the United States — and in doing so, they found connection, courage and belonging.
