More than being a powerful tale about sacrifice, adversity, and understanding, this account can be seen as the authors best attempt to comprehend the numerous challenges he was forced to face throughout his upbringing. We are given a generous look at the struggles involved in having to watch as his parents left him behind, and how eventually, along with his mother and two siblings, he embarks on a dangerous journey through the desert to be reunited with his father, where together they go on to spend their days living as a family of fugitives. The land of the free quickly turns into a torturous place as the young boy battles with an identity crisis that is never quite resolved. The divisive sentiment and general bigotry that can be seen around the globe is much too real for many people, and there will never be a better cure for these evils than understanding. Providing an opportunity to understand is the best gift we can offer, and in that sense, this story couldnt possibly be more generous. -A coming of age / cultural / political / immigrant experience / dreamer / illegal alien / family / personal / journey / travel / adventure that couldnt fit in one category.
