I’ve chosen Ana Menéndez’s story “In Cuba I Was a German Shephard” because‚ since I’m a Latino‚ I thought I could relate to the story. The story is about four Latino men (two Cubans -– Máximo and Raúl -- and two Dominicans – Carlos and Antonio) that gather together every morning to play Dominos in a park in Miami.
