Summary of Sonia Sotomayor's My Beloved World

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

#1 I was diagnosed with diabetes when I was eight years old. The disease was a threat to the already fragile world of my childhood, but it also inspired in me a precocious self-reliance that is not uncommon in children who feel their parents are unreliable.

#2 My father was an excellent cook, but he would shut himself in the bedroom after dinner, leaving my brother and me alone. We would watch television to fill the silence.

#3 I was a watchful child, constantly scanning the adults around me for clues and listening in on their conversations. I was constantly trying to understand my parents and forgive them, but I was constantly being blamed for my parents’ problems.

#4 My father was sick, and my mother took him to the hospital. Tío Vitín and Tío Benny came to get me and my brother, and they were talking about how our home was a pigsty with dishes in the sink and no toilet paper. I felt ashamed, and I cleaned up the dishes every night.
