Your English is Great, But…
A Life Between Languages, Cities, and Grief
(A memoir-in-essays by José Martínez)

“I didn’t just translate my words. I translated my silence.”
About the Book
What happens when the voice you built your career on suddenly feels like it doesn’t belong?
Your English is Great, But… is a memoir-in-essays about living between languages, carrying grief across borders, and searching for home in the space between cultures.
From newsrooms to new cities, from loss to rediscovery, José Martínez shares the deeply personal journey of how language shapes our identity—and what it takes to find your voice again when the world tells you it doesn’t quite fit.
