Because all I had read were books in which characters were foreign, I had become convinced that books by their very nature had to have foreigners in them and had to be about things with which I could not personally identify.
Porque yo sólo leía libros donde los personajes eran extranjeros, estaba convencida de que los libros, por naturaleza, debían tener extranjeros, y narrar cosas con las que yo no podía identificarme.
