In January 1993, nine inches of rain fell on the San Diego/Tijuana region, seven inches more than normal for the month. Most of the rain fell within a two-week period, flooding many parts of the region. When it was over, 66 people in Tijuana had lost their lives.
Through the firsthand account of his brother Claudio Burgin, the author presents the poignant narrative of "When The Rains Came." The heart-wrenching story unfolds as Antonio, a close friend of Claudio, endures the unimaginable loss of his parents, who were tragically torn away from him during the forceful impact of the initial wave that struck their home..
The natural calamity was further compounded by a political power struggle between two opposing parties, leading local politicians to refuse aid from the federal government.
Also included, as a bonus, are three pieces documenting the Mexican American experience by the author along with one short story.
