About the book (from the dust jacket)
Pick one. Anyone at all. Each has its own glow, its own history from orange grove to processing plant to fruit stand to you.
And behind each are many women and men, speaking Spanish or Creole, English or Korean,
all sharing- –as we share the planet- in bringing that sweet golden globe to your neighborhood,
your hand, your mouth. So good!
