I Don't Want to Forget This:

A Memoir of Leaving, Remembering, and Becoming


I Don’t Want to Forget This is a lyrical memoir of girlhood, migration, survival, and becoming. Told in poetic fragments and vivid vignettes, Paulina Lam Esparza traces her journey from a chaotic, love-filled childhood in northern Mexico to adulthood in the United States — through trauma, longing, healing, and joy. Along the way, she rebuilds homes in post-earthquake Oaxaca, walks the Camino de Santiago with blistered feet and a restless heart, and learns to love — and be loved — without shrinking. This is a story about leaving home, finding it again, and learning that sometimes it’s something you carry with you. A story for girls told to be quiet, for immigrants who live between languages, for survivors who keep standing, and for anyone learning how to stay soft in a world that keeps trying to harden us. I Don’t Want to Forget This is a quiet revolution. A love letter to the past — and a promise to the future.
